ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I don't know if anyone caught it or even remembers, but in the 1st inning, Fowler crossed home plate after the 3rd out was made on a force out at 1st. The crowed erupted when Fowler "scored". So adorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Well, on the plus side, they can have "Cubs' Attendance Champion Hard Hat" giveaways for the next 3-4 years. Except they better start winning at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 5, 2015 -> 06:49 PM) I haven't come across a single solitary Cubs fan that think they're going to win the WS this year. But they have many, many reasons to be hype/excited/etc. That's how the majority of my Cubs fans friends are. They think it will be a fun year but they won't compete over the whole season.

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 5, 2015 -> 08:04 PM) None until Friday for JAVY Baez and Bryant. It's all because they are too cheap for Chris Bryant and the new jet stream polar vortex caused by the video board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 That stat last night where Lester has only thrown over to 1B once since 2011 is pretty incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time he threw over to 1B was April 30, 2013. Not 2011, nonetheless that's still incredible. I forgot what inning it was but, when he got the comebacker to him when Hayward was on second with 0 outs and Hayward went to third, Lester didn't even think of going to third to get him. He definitely has a severe case of the yips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 6, 2015 -> 07:34 AM) Fathom, this is why I always feel bad for you. If you are going to always be obsessed with the Cubs, at least enjoy nights like these It was an enjoyable game to watch. The Cubs offense will be very good, but I do think it's quite comical they looked so bad given their fans begging for Bryant to be up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I watched some last night with my wife, who finds baseball on tv incredibly boring. She and I both thought ESPN has been doing a great job of audio editing and cut aways around the park. I wish comcast could get a sound mix as good as ESPNs, but without their commentary crew.

pettie4sox Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) So does Bryant make a difference in yesterday's game? I mean the wonder twins got 1 hit and 1 BB. Edited April 6, 2015 by pettie4sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch the Cubs suck, then Bryant gets called up with all the hype and pressure on his shoulders. Then he inevitably fails because of said pressure. I swear man, the hype kills almost every Cubs prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I guess I can see how they were caught off guard by the bathroom situation...not really but I will give them a pass on that, but a hot dog bun shortage? That is freaking hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the wonder twins got 1 hit and 1 BB. Was talking baseball earlier with a friend and the thing that we both agreed on was the fact that Bryant should have been up all of last year. This year I get but he should have been up last year as well. The cubs have cost bryant two years of free agency. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. Also Bryce harper is younger than Kris Bryant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whtsoxfan Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Players change, Managers and GM"s change, but same old s***, bunch of slow, station-to-station, flat footed right handed semi-power hitters, no one who can either run the bases or steal one, or hit with two-out, hit in the clutch or play under the slightest pressure. Same old s***. Starlin Castro falling asleep out at shortstop, as always, can't say that you came blame him, the games are so long and boring and he is such a brainless twit!

Things should change with Bryant and Russell injecting some excitement into that line-up, to go along with Soler and Rizzo. Depending on whether Castro's head is in the game or not, that's a very solid core of five youngish players, not counting the likes of Alcantara, Baez, Schwarber, Almora, McKinney, etc. Edited April 7, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
