How did they call that guy out at first?

Looked pretty clear that Rizzo's foot came off the bag.

Yeah that should of been overturned, they seem to stick with the on field call a bit too much lately imo.

They just said there wasn't enough evidence.

It looked pretty obvious to me. I'm not sure exactly what happened there.

No, but I just did a syringe of heroin.

Why?

jeffchitown · 10-10-16, 11:15 PM

Noooooooo[ooooooooooo strop is up 50% chance of failure

jeffchitown · 10-10-16, 11:18 PM

Thank god strop went out with no damage good job strop

now lets go wood

d2bets · 10-10-16, 11:20 PM

One angle I thought foot off for sure; other angle looked like foot was on. It came off at some point but hard to say whether there was still some touch at moment it hit glove. Sometimes they take the "clear evidence" thing seriously, other times they don't. Baseball replay is very inconsistent.

d2bets · 10-10-16, 11:21 PM

One pitch job for Wood. Perhaps he'll stay in to face the lefty Belt before giving way to Rondon?

jeffchitown · 10-10-16, 11:23 PM

I think they should keep him but depends they will pinch hit maybe if he is up although didnt he hit that hr

lakerboy · 10-10-16, 11:23 PM

D2 he was safe. Common guy?

His spot is not coming up to bat this inning.

I thought they would call that, but understand why they didn't. They may have had a freeze frame with ball in glove that was unclear.

If someone got on base he would be

No. Heyward next, they flipped. T Wood in Soler's spot.

I bet Wood will stay in for Belt, although Belt not bad against lefties.

jeffchitown · 10-10-16, 11:30 PM

Your right didnt realize he came from the soler line

The Giant · 10-10-16, 11:33 PM

Do people in Chicago like Jason Heyward?

lakerboy · 10-10-16, 11:35 PM

I think Heyward is going yard.

Great defender! very poor hitter for the amount we are paying him

d2bets · 10-10-16, 11:36 PM

Taking my ambien now... if this game lasts more than 20 more minutes, please excuse anything bizarre.

lakerboy · 10-10-16, 11:36 PM

Fukking loser. Have to sweat this shit out. The last one is always the hardest.

Were you with hunter pence at the time?

He's been extremely disappointing at the plate this year. But there's a lot of history and he's young so it's hard to figure and it wouldn;t be surprising if he fixed it for next season. He's lost at the plate lately though.

So. Would you guys do it differently if you could?

lakerboy · 10-10-16, 11:38 PM

One more run coming. Not sure which team. Gotta feeling cubs explode in top of the ninth. Seen it many times.

I don't think he's that young anymore. It seems like he is what he is at this point.

I know he's a great defender, but watching him hit is painful.

Cubs have done that many times, but I think this one ends as is 3-2.

Wood stays on for Belt.

Why do you want one more run from either team? I thought you had five units or so on the Cubs.

He's like 26/27 years old, I believe. What he is this season is not what he's been before.

He's a joke. Been around for 7 yrs. His ceiling is ~.270 25ish HRs and 80-85 RBI

d2bets · 10-10-16, 11:40 PM

Rondon has a big job here.
