  1. Now he gives a hint to a question "this player played with the Cubs in 2002-2003 at first base" and Ron goes "it's not Robin Ventura is it?"
  2. Lmao. Mark Grote is asking trivia questions on air for Pat and Ron. He just asked "Who was the last player before Betts this year to hit 3 home runs in a game twice in a season?" After some wrong guesses Grote gave them a hint that it happened in 2006. Coomer then guessed Paul Goldschmidt, who made his MLB debut in 2011
  3. I kind of wish all weekday day games started at this time. Nice to have something to follow in the afternoons at work, then listen to on the drive home and then watch the last 2 innings at home.
  4. Yuck 2 bad Javy ABs after a good result in his first
  5. I love how many times the Cubs score runs on weakly hit balls simply by being aggressive and forcing the defense to make a play. Running on contact with the IF in, executing a squeeze even though everyone knows its coming. Sure they sometimes get burned on it, but I think it's helped more than it's hurt, and it actually won them a freaking playoff game last year.
  6. That's awesome but sucks Addy isn't going to get any RBIs for that. edit: NM he gets 1 RBI duh
  7. One of the problems? That is THE single biggest problem he has. If he didn't have that issue he'd still be subpar but wouldn't be a constant point of discussion.
  8. Did the Padres change pitchers after the 1st inning or something? This dude is likely to pitch into the 6th inning for the first time in his 8 starts...not something you'd expect when he gave up 3 runs before recording his first out today.
  9. Laugh all you want but I'm assuming at least Guaranteed Rate is a business that operates in the Chicago area unlike US Cellular.
  10. Apparently the Cell is going to be called "Guaranteed Rate Field" next season. Wow edit: NM just saw the thread on this
  11. Kyle is 0 for 4 at getting the leadoff man out
  12. damn, could have used that run. quick efficient inning Kyle
  13. Damn I thought Heyward got that. OK you are hitting the ball harder and in the air, now just need a lower launch angle.
  14. It is a different park in day games. Something about the marine layer creeping in around 4pm correct?
  15. Another shitty thing about Kyle's start is that 52 pitches through 3 makes it more likely we need 3+ innings from the pen today
  16. After dominating the Rockies at Coors
  17. 8 hits today, 6 of them for extra bases including 3 triples
  18. it seems like Kyle does not have his best stuff today. Might be a dogfight to get this W for once
  19. Leadoff home run next inning i guess?
  20. Well this [expletive] is settling in
  21. horsefeathering Schimpf trying to hurt Hendrick's sparkling ERA
  22. Reasonably. For anyone else I wouldn't think twice about it being positive or negative either way. But it was fairly well struck, traveled half the distance to the OF and was opposite field. Not bad.
  23. The ball kind of carried a bit, I think he held up to make sure it wasnt caught
  24. Double, Double, Triple Good start :)
