Happy birthday dear Wrigley Field.

It hit 2B bag and bounced to right field.

Remember Matt Clement vs. Alex Cora?

Carlos Marmol Arm slot issues.

PUT SOMEBODY ELSE IN RENTERIA YOU [expletive].

Yeah, I'm surprised they're not facing the Cincinnati Red Stockings.

Rain/thunder expected at 6pm. Not sure if they can get this one in.

Come watch a game at Wrigley while sitting in the Budweiser Bleachers.

Yankees and Red Sox are playing tonight.

No way in hell Edwin Jackson would've gotten that call.

And Len makes a pizza-related fat joke towards him.

I hear Mariano Rivera is free these days.

Great use of $11,000,000.00.

There has to be somebody we have in the minors that can put up better numbers than Edwin Jackson.

Pull out the tarp.

I hope he's not in the team in 2015.

You can't have an easy inning, can you Edwin?

Jackson missed his spot badly and Castillo had to reach all the way across his body to catch it. That doesn't excuse the ump from not calling it a strike, but it certainly wasn't Castillo's fault like Kyle might want you to believe. You can't have human eyes properly judge the perimeter of an invisible zone. It's the 21st century. Lets make this game fair. It's time for an computerized strikezone. Edwin Jackson threw a strike. Edwin Jackson deserved a strike there. Where Castillo meant to catch the ball should not matter at all.
