Nationals (Cavalli) vs Cubs (Boyd): 3/26/26, 1:20pm

[Jason Ross]

That's not a bad play from Matt. He made it look awkward but that wind is gnarly

[JHBulls]

Outfielders battling the wind today

Honestly did not think a ball hit with that much arc could get out on a day like today.

Calling it now, we're going to have a juiced ball season.

Some really impressive movement on some of these pitches

[UMFan83]

Did they remove the strike zone from the broadcast?  There was a very light one around home plate in the first inning but now there's nothing there.

Five strikeouts in a row for Boyd!

[UMFan83]

seriously this doesn't bother anyone else that there's no strike zone graphic on pitches?  I heard they were potentially removing it due to ABS but when it saw it on the screen in the 1st inning I figured they decided to keep it, now its gone.

Trying to reactivate my mlb.tv account. They're trying to make it as difficult as possible to actually buy the thing. Maybe I'm just pirating all year?

[chibears55]

Busch first RBI

[Nolansomebody]

Busch hits a single to let Swanson score. Tie game at 1!

It's not easy. You have to go through ESPN, and if you don't want to also pay for ESPN unlimited you have to cancel it right after you buy MLBTV. They 'give' you a free month of it with hopes that you'll forget to cancel.

Grew up watching Cubs baseball without strike zone graphics or score bugs on the screen. Doesn’t bother me in the slightest. 

[Andy]

Not Ian's most impressive work there

[Nolansomebody]

PCA RBI to take the lead 

[Andy]

I see you PCA!

[Derwood]

First TOOTBLAN of the season

[chopsx9]

That was a ...circuitous route.

I knew someone would say that lol.  So did I but I got used to it.  Difficult to adjust back for me.

Bregman is pretty slow isn't he
