lol Fermin is having a horrible time out there defensively 

[chibears55]

There you go Rook, sac fly and a bonus run on another error.

Got the 3 back and an extra one, great response bats

[muntjack]

What is Pete so pissed about? 

[PeanutPunch33]

damn, PCA has a .912 OPS now.  That's big time.

Might be something the pitcher doing

Did CC just pet Bregman?

[chibears55]

It a strike Alex, way to waste it

I don’t think Svanson made eye contact. I think he’s pissed because the last AB was a hit by pitch and they have sour grapes when he bitched them last series 🤷‍♂️

[UMFan83]

The only thing worse than striking out looking yet again with RISP is wasting a challenge on a pretty clear strike. 
 

(I’m aware he had an RBI double today, just saying)

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

yeah that was a brutal challenge

Just when I start to think great defense is overrated, I am reminded that it is underrated.

Feels like once every 10 days or so we get a game where we're reminded how nice it is having competent defenders at every position

[mk49]

Bregman knows the zone.

I don't know what is happening with him but someone needs to figure it out and quick

Bregman needs to have a talk with Bregman during the break 🤷

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

[abuck1220]

[Rex Buckingham]

is Pomeranz in the BP circle of trust?

i'm not sure I even know who's first

[Geographyhater8888]

I think Webb is the only current relief pitcher who was on the opening day roster.

Let’s go with it - like he never left us

Too early to say, but he's been good.  If he can be trusted like last year, it'd help a lot.

[Papa Cub]

The little things - that was a great hit by Kelly just now! Shortened his swing up and took it opposite way. Well done 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

never seen so many hbp in one series.
