  1. This ump sucks. 2 Cubs strikeouts today on clear balls so far
  2. 4 Rangers errors now lmao edit: I guess they are calling it a double but definitely misplayed.
  3. And it’s tied. 6 baserunners through 2.1 IP for Steele
  4. Meanwhile Dansby might be a little distracted today yikes
  5. Anyone but Yan Gomes and it’s 2-0 without a single hard hit ball (maybe Bellingers was)
  6. lmao Rangers defense is interesting. 3 errors already
  7. Haha Cubs score a run on a infield single (possibly could have been called an error), error, balk and groundout
  8. If the Cubs could start out every homestand with a shutout win, that would be cool
  9. Fulmer again. Rossy really loves his relievers going 2 innings in close games.
  10. Man it seems so weird to see a LHH hitting a grounder to the spot Barnhardt just did and getting it through the infield. My first thought was "easy out" #byeshift
  11. I'm also not sure about how their MLB graphics resemble iPhone widgets. I guess its about branding or something but just seems weird
  12. Yeah its solid but its extremely choppy and slowing down my work computer on the browser lol
  13. horsefeathers apple TV+. I cant watch the game....even though I'm logged in and have a subscription, it takes me to a screen where I'm supposed to subscribe again?!?! Even though on the same screen it tells me I'm subscribed. I've tried for 3 innings, i give up Edit: Finally after signing in and out 3 times it finally accepted that I am a paid subscriber. Still can't get it going on my phone because the update for the IOS keeps freezing and I'm not sure how to fix that. What a frustrating experience overall
  14. My phone is still updating....streaming live sports is so awesome. Edit: For some reason something is wrong with updating my phone. Good stuff...guess I'm not watching.
  15. Damn you Apple TV+, making me update my iOS to watch the game
  16. I get it...I've said this before but the thing I hate about streaming is the length of time it takes from 'hey I should put the game on' to 'game is on my TV'. Not so bad on the phone but on a smart TV it can take a good 45 seconds....sucks when you want to flip it on quickly in a big situation. The other more annoying thing is the inability to easily flip between shows, which MLB (and MLS) probably considers a feature not a bug, but its a barrier for casual fans to put on. For example, I am a pretty casual MLS watcher, don't follow super closely as a league but keep an eye on the Fire. The other day I saw that they were up 1 in the 90th minute and decided to put it on. But it was also during the final 8 minutes of a close NCAA tourney game. By the time I got the Fire game on, I wanted to flip back to the tourney game and I did and then didn't give a second thought to going back to the MLS game. Nit picking I know, but even if people become more comfortable with the concept of the forced streaming of live sports, I don't see how those issues are solved.
  17. Everton tried spending blood money to build a Champions League qualifier and it got them into this relegation battle as well as being deep enough into debt that they might get a points deduction 😅
  18. Rangers are 4-2 but are they really that good? i
  19. This logic is all fine and well if you ignore the part that they are currently in the Champions League QFs.
