I missed both plays as I was pinching a loaf, but wasn't Zobrist covering 2nd and running the other way? I still like seeing Javi in LF, but I didn't see that play either.
Zobrist was moving towards second and the ball was right in front of his face. I'm not ragging on the guy but I was surprised he didnt even try

Well, I still wouldn't really comment on the play unless I had seen it, but don't you think it's silly to single out one play as what he brings to the table?

Cubs are playing some crappy situational ball today? Maybe it's playing a day game after a night game. I know Maddon hates that part of the Cubs schedule. What ever happened to P's that can bunt? It's a lost art, imo.

Man, Russell really reminds me of Ozzie Smith in terms of making the hard play look routine. The kid can play some SS, period.

Hendricks should put on a Lackey jersey and maybe the offense would wake up.

That was a really odd looking route Soler took.

Defense is completely letting the team down today with the bats. Lets see if they can catch lightning in a bottle

The Cubs are just playing like crap today. I'm calling it cuz of the 1st day game. They are just not sharp, in all phases of the game.

This one loss might count as two they're playing so bad.

Down by 3 and Fowler swinging at 2-0 pitches like he's Ted Williams.

i would have pulled Hendricks in the bottom of the 5th in that bunt situation, the very next inning he gave up 3 hits, bottom of the 5th you pull your pitcher there specially if the pitcher name is not Arrieta
