    Seriously its hilarious that the ball boy inadvertently showed the umpire up even though he technically should have seen the umpire pointing fair lol
  2. UMFan83
    Yikes, come on bro how you gonna touch that ball? Edit: nevermind the ball boy was right?!, very astute of him!
  3. UMFan83
    That's fine....as we've talked about a ton lately, keep hitting it like that and it will even out.
  4. UMFan83
    Regardless of ballpark. The wind is blowing E to W right now so directly in at RF. Probably a HR on a neutral day. That also makes it more of a cross wind going to LF I think, but maybe in just enough to affect some of the other batted balls
  5. UMFan83
    Aggressive send, glad the throw was off
  6. UMFan83
    Happs double is a HR in 27/30 parks. Makes up a bit for Seiya's HR being a HR just at Wrigley. Edit: also not a HR at Fenway and Coors.
  7. UMFan83
    Gonna have to hope 3 runs holds up just in case. Edit: and very next pitch Happ almost homers
  8. UMFan83
    Phew...3 hard hit balls all over 106 mph and 2 walks but no damage
  9. UMFan83
    Awful 4 pitch walk, none of the pitches were even close
  10. UMFan83
    nevermind PCA has it under control
  11. UMFan83
    Not a great start to the inning. Come on Rea, at least get through this inning.
  12. UMFan83
    Damn great catch. I know many fielders who would have let that drop for fear of hitting the wall
  13. UMFan83
    What a terrible strike 1 to Seiya
  14. UMFan83
    The ball to Seyia was 93.5, ball to Dansby was 93.8
  15. UMFan83
    Seiya's HR: 105.7 mph exit velocity, 26 degree launch angle, HR in 1/30 parks (yay Wrigley), .950 xBA, 389 feet Dansby's flyout: 105.4 mph exit velocity, 31 degree launch angle, .850 xBA, 385 feet So basically 0.3 mph less velocity hit 5 degrees higher caused the ball to go 4 less feet
  16. UMFan83
    Dammit....got one past the wind, but the wind takes one back.
  17. UMFan83
    Says a lot about PCA that when I saw the ball bounce away from the fielders that I briefly wondered if he could get a triple out of it even though it happened in short left field.
  18. UMFan83
    And of course Giolito gives up 3 ER in 3 batters
  19. UMFan83
    should have been an all-star
  20. UMFan83
    Oh they didnt. Honestly just assumed they were giving Shota and Boyd an extra day of rest with Rea going today and then resetting back to the top of the rotation. Seems pretty crazy to do a bullpen game against Crochet. Any game is winnable but dramatically lowering their odds. I get that Counsell is playing the long game though.
  21. UMFan83
    Gonna be a tough series right out of the gate. Giolito has allowed just 3 ER total in his last 6 starts and 1 in his last 3, averaging almost 7 innings a start. Then they have Bello who has an ERA under 3 each of the last 2 months. Followed by Crochet who has been one of the best LHP in baseball this year coming off a CG shutout of the Rays. Not trying to be a doomer, we can hit good pitching, especially RHP. And the fact that Rea is going today is somewhat balanced out by the wind blowing in today, then Shota and Boyd going the next 2 games.
  22. UMFan83
    PCA double off a lefty!
  23. UMFan83
    Wait why isn’t Kyle Tucker doing that in regular season games? Should he be in left field??
  24. UMFan83
    Smart getting out so Tucker and PCA don’t have to face the lefty Skubal
  25. UMFan83
    horsefeathers that blows
