Pitchers miss location all the time, I'm sure his intention wasn't fastball down the middle

Me too. But I don’t doubt the plan was to be in the zone, or just off it low and outside. Just not a complete meatball.

As bad as Alex Cohen is, he's Jon Miller compared to Zach Zaidman

For me Coomer is the tiebreaker so it's audio overlay.

Pat left the booth midgame on Monday and hasn't been back, I hope he's alright

Carson tried to run as hard as possible.  Very nice.

[UMFan83]

Even in a good offensive day they manage to squander 1st and 2nd, 0 outs and 1st and 3rd with 1 out situation

Really don’t want to bat in the 9th. 

You’re not kidding - Webb to close I’d assume?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

saved two challenges for the 9th and the guy doesn't challenge an obvious ball, brutal

[UMFan83]

Down to 2…

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

can't throw first pitch fastballs to these dudes, they're always hacking

[UMFan83]

I’m washing my hands of this team if they blow an 8-1 lead lol

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Sing the song, bittches

[JHBulls]

Is Alex Cohen and Cliff Floyd our good luck charm? 

[UMFan83]

Wait why aren’t they mobbing each other in the middle of the field?  Wait a non-walkoff win at Wrigley?!

[chibears55]

Cubs survived this tough 12 game stretch against the Giants and Rockies, and go 6-6 against them...

Rolling now 😅

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

115 win pace in the last 7

[PeanutPunch33]

It's so awesome to see how PCA and Ben have developed this year.  It'll be fun to watch Ben against a solid lineup in Toronto 

[Hortonhearsawho]

That was unnecessarily close but nice to get another series win at least. 

[mk49]

Even though it was only one inning, it's awesome to see them hit with RISP.

Glad we don’t have to face the Rockies again. They were a tough opponent.

Someone gotta bitch about something 

[Stratos]

Shaw has closed up his stance a bunch.  Not as extreme as before the tweaks last year but still closer to his old form.

I’m surprised the pitching lab hasn’t told Assad to stop throwing his sinker like with Taillon and Cabrera. They only like low 90’s 4 seamers that are clobbered.

Well, we lost the game before that they did together so maybe not.  I will say Cliff does make a more concerted effort than JD to conversate with Alex.  But even with Cliff it just seems to me Alex seems like the new kid at school trying too hard to get everyone to like him.   I find myself cringing several times a game when he's on the broadcast.

100% this. Boog and JD have an easy chemistry. Len and JD had it as well. Cohen, Sutcliffe and Girardi all ignore the other person in the booth. 

Cohen/Sutcliffe is the worst case scenario

[muntjack]

Len and JD clearly liked each other and are about as good a combo as you could ever wish for.  JD tolerates Boog.  I often feel like I can hear him rolling his eyes.
