And yet he was out by a hair. It really wasnt that bad of a send IMO.

It was a good send with two outs and Happ coming up against a good lefty

Probably because he hesitated his throw in shock he was going 😅😅

How about we wake up now offense and put a couple on the board here

Just saw the trade deadline is August 3rd, why so late this year ?

[We Got The Whole 9]

Dansby's stealing prowess is really underrated

Last year was July 31 - just a few days. Not too much longer

Some bad luck today offensively

[UMFan83]

I wasn't even watching the AB, I just heard a loud F-bomb and assumed PCA popped it up

It normally the 31st, just wondered why it later now

Anybody know the last time Happ got a hit as a RH batter?

[chibears55]

Getting lucky with Peterson getting out of innings , not so sure itll continue with Hollowell, Ferguson,  and whoever else they use.

Bats need to get it going

Berry does that a lot it seems with two outs. I kind of get it with two outs…..Berry was hoping for an offline relay at some point and lost that one 

You know what, with Ian Happ on deck I have to change my opinion on that call.  GREAT send by Barry.  😂

[PeanutPunch33]

If Peterson can get 4 more outs, that's a great start.  Way better than I would have expected

Probably would of been a good day to give him a day off and start Alcantara

It would be great if he can do it without giving up another run, I think Counsell might push it considering the lack of rested pen arms today.

That’s an interesting question - I think he rolls out Hollowell, but I couldn’t blame him for going with Peterson for another inning if even a third or so. We shall see 

[profisme]

That one was crushed.

[Papa Cub]

There it is!!!

[UMFan83]

After getting lucky with hard hit outs yesterday, Bregman just decided to go back to weak grounders

[chibears55]

Zuki !!!!

New ballgame 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Tie game. Great job by Seiya waiting back on that change.

Yeah I can't blame Counsell if he punts today going into the band box that is Cinci
