Remember when we were losing this game 2-0 with Ian Happ up with the bases loaded and 2 outs?

I get your point, but it was 2-1 when that happened😅

You're right, I forgot about Conforto

I was thinking the lighting isn’t bright enough.

All you can hear is the pitcher grunting. Can’t hear the crowd at all.

Brings up a question: did they do ABS for the field of dreams game?

Speaking of the Little League classic, they just announced the Cubs and Jays will be playing in it next year.  First time since I think 2018 for the Cubs.  All I remember about that was Anthony Rizzo sliding down a hill on cardboard.

Trent Thornton's velo has exploded recently?  Ive generally been a skeptic but if he's sitting north of 96 instead of 94 and change....

Cubs are going to be high lited next year with All Star game and this, hopefully they have a season and a winning one.

Did he steal some velo from Shota?

Is it tho? I don’t think HFA matters much in baseball. 

I just think playing a three game series at Wrigley would make a big difference. Crowd, knowing the field, etc.

I believe that's 9 unearned runs because they couldn't catch a pop-up

The pop-up that wasn’t t caught went for a hit. There were no unearned runs. No idea how that ball dropped, but really it was a hard ball for the 3rd baseman to catch. SS didn’t even go after it and I have no idea where Arozarena was, but he wasnt close to the ball.

it did last year, IMO. But this year the Cubs are as good on the road as they are at home. That said, home has advantages.

Sure glad we didn’t listen to that idiot here that suggested DFAing Civale instead of setting down Assad
