Rockies getting absolutely screwed there. There's no way that didn't go out. How do the umpires explain the ball flying back on the field the way it did. Ridiculous.
This announcer is an idiot. Yeah, it hit the yellow padding and then went flying back on the field. If it hit the padding it wouldn't have bounced like that.
Comcast is terrible. I've been thinking about switching to direcTV for a few months now. This would pretty much make up my mind for me if Comcast doesn't get TBS HD by gametime on Wednesday.
just turned the game on in the 5th, and Peavy was getting 6 inches off the outside corner. has it gone both ways? pretty much. both benches have been yelling at the homeplate umpire.
I really don't think MLB cares about a Chicago Marathon. What's more important a yearly marathon or a Cub playoff game. It's going to be insane for people who are driving in the City that day trying to get to the game because of the marathon. People will definitely care. I'm just glad I live close enough I can walk.
I might buy a pennant if the Cubs somehow win the World Series, but that's about it. The shirts and hats pretty much go out of date about 10 days after the playoffs end, IMO.
