Still not sure why zobrist didn't try for the triple

One out is the time to go and seemed like he had a great chance and of course the throw from harper to murphy was offline.....and as darling said....murphy has a noodle arm
He's not fast and it looked like he would have been out.

huge wild pitch. Will has to be more aggressive at blocking that knowing with Jake, you're getting a lot of late movement.

How does Javy swing at that 1-0 pitch? Like, how in your mind as a hitter are you even swinging at that? Not only was it never a fastball out the hand, it was no where near the zone. THAT's the pitch he has to learn to take. I don't need the guy to be perfect at reading slider, taking, and letting go. I need the go to sit 1-0, look for a pitch in a zone and attack it and let it go, even if it's a strike.

The fact the guy has well over 1000 PA now just makes me wish he learns it soon.
He you ever watched Javy bat? He usually swings at pitches like that.

Other than that, don't get why he didn't go.
They still had 3 shots at someone getting a big hit and failed to do do..


Deep fly
Walk
Easy grounder

Looked like zobrist slowed a bit just before second, went 2 steps past, came back to the base and that's when murphy as getting and reterivng a poor throw from Harper

Think if he goes full thinking 3 All the way think he's safe

They get an opportunity and cash in on an error

could tell off the bat that ball had bad hop written all over it. Just got caught in between and with Zimmerman running, I'd love to see him play that bad hop instead of try and judge it.

Also felt like he went around on that previous pitch so it hurts even a little more.

Glad addi turns that easy grounder into a do or die play vs the 8th fastest player in their lineup.

The sloppy defense by this team is so effing frustrating. Especially when facing a pitcher this good.

I really believe Javy's swings are predetermined before the ball is thrown.

Not to mention Zimmerman swung and struck out the pitch before

How quick will the Cubs adjust to the fact Strasburg is throwing heavy breakingballs.
