Well, that makes sense.

I wish the future would hurry up and get here.

At least Tork can make contact. That’s a plus.

Ump gives Jung a break then screw’s him on a “K.” Baez up…

Tork double 4-4 2nite

Top of the 9th. Last chance… Tork up…

At least Baez didn’t strike out on that pitch that was 4 feet out of the strike zone

Was really hoping they were going to tie it up there so we could have that nailbiting extra inning victory.

It’s pretty disappointing they couldn’t get the runner in from third with no outs heck.

When I was a little kid our milkman in Auburn IN – yeah I know this is the old days when there actually were milkmen – and our milkman was Wayne Schurr who had been in 30 games as a reliever for the Cubs in 1964. When I finally got his baseball card for an autograph, which I admit was not hard to do because they printed a lot of the marginal ballplayers, I never saw him again because he had been moved to a different milk route, and he never pitched more than that one season for the Cubs.

We need a DP.

Rotation. Group Effort. Now, “Rotation.”

Sammons has had some good outings in his role.

And he ended up swinging at a pitch way out of the strike zone.

Good Lord, I’m getting kind of verklempt.

Dillon Dingler singles on a ground ball to center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong. Spencer Torkelson scores. Jace Jung to 2nd.

It’s kind of heartwarming that the crowd comes to their feet for Baez

I forget what the correct term for “a bullpen game” is now. “Making lemonade out of lemons?“

Parker Meadows walks to open the game. Nice.

The radio app just cut Dan and Bobby off in mid-sentence. It’s not like they were almost over, they were cut off in the middle of an idea. And to “expand your baseball vocabulary” was the excuse.

Wow, that’s brutal but well-deserved.

It sure would make sense if NL teams played both the Giants and the Dodgers back to back in the olden days. But scheduling would’ve had to have been predicated on those two teams being in town back to back so it’s possible it may have occurred, but perhaps not often. It might’ve been seen as giving an edge to the visitor team and hence something to be avoided. I don’t know, though. I’m just thinking off the top of my head.

I am expecting us to play some good baseball against the White Sox.

Jim was like an uncle who had played for the team. Jim felt like family.

Chuck lives there. Nice area.
