Sometimes it helps to be freakishly tall. :lol:

 

And have freakishly long arms.

WHat a great play by Lee. VERY hard to keep your concentration. Too bad the camera wasn't pointed on hi at the time. Talk about baseball in your living room.

[Iceblink]

Grrrr - Fick sucks.

[Outshined_One]

Grrrr - Fick sucks.

 

What did the Ficker do now?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I know Hill's fastball isn't the greatest, but he needs to pitch to contact more often. Especially with players like Terrero. Get a groundball or a quick out.

[jjgman21]

Rich needs a move to first base. his delivery and pick off are completely different.

[otis89]

Crap. Tie game.

Brenly name-dropped Fick talking about the Pads. I had to react.

 

And Hill gets hit for a double by Hill. Fick jinxed us.

[XZero771679666304]

Tie game. :x

Except when stuff like that happens.

[jjgman21]

hung one.

[Jon]

That's a hanger. At least Hill was out in front of it a bit and didn't send it to the bleachers.

[OldHappyCubFan]

I have to be honest, hes looking good, but Hill's pitches all suck, except his curve.

 

He needs to develop some different pitches.

[Jon]

Yeesh.

 

2nd full count to the opposing pitcher, as well.

[Fred Hornkohl]

[jjgman21]

what about his AS appearance made Aram revert to old defensively?

[110percent]

i thought i was at the circus for a minute..

third base has been an adventure today.

[Outshined_One]

Is Hill the only Cub starter who doesn't use a 2 seam sinker as his primary fastball?

[oldcubsfan]

He should be learning at AAA, not all rookies are all stars when they come up. I think he's done fine since he's been up.

[Iceblink]

78 pitches...20 more that inning.

[oldcubsfan]

what about his AS appearance made Aram revert to old defensively?

Maybe a sore leg has something to do with it.

[OldHappyCubFan]

Aram and Lee have been looking horrible, lately.

[oldcubsfan]

Aram and Lee have been looking horrible, lately.

Maybe we should trade them both, LOL

[Warren Brusstar]

Aram now 3 for his last 17. (And, it's not like his hit yesterday was hit all that hard -- just a chopper with eyes)
