IST: Cubs vs. Brewers(Opening Day)

[CSF77]

Nice

That was a interesting delivery. Salt to chlorine converter for a customer's pool. 95 today and tomorrow that sounds really nice

I was reading that Burns was striking out Cubs last year at a record pace. I guess there is something to removing a few 30% strike out bats

That's a good win to open the year.

Yes, you could see what Hoyer was doing last year with Madrigal. He wants contact and walks. Cubs before were strikeouts and walks. This is very much a small ball team even though Hoerner went yard

Did someone check on the Brewers to make sure they survive this rain out?

Doing this against the Brewers top 2....

Brewers are such babies.

Counsell is such a dick.

Great game. Make the Crew look like little league players who can't pitch inside.

Classic

 

[Szlachcic]

It's a small sample but I like the 'new approach' in the batters box by the hitters. The discipline in the batters box was nonexistent in recent years.

@CSF77 look at steel coming thru! Thanks for not believing in him, you made this possible!!

 

[DrGonzo]

Granted the Brewers' pitching was surprisingly bad but it's still nice to see they can put up 9 without a home run. I think the prediction that the new look Cubs would be more disciplined and hit for contact looks like it's going to be true. That is just fine with me as there should also be enough power in this lineup when needed.

LOL at Ross saying “A lot of balls getting away from guys the last couple of days. This game has a way sometimes of just kind of policing itself.” I am guessing the league will step in and put both managers on notice before someone really does get hurt?

B game

 

[SilenceS]

Suzuki just hit a bomb. Great at bat

Ugh. Not a fan of attempting to steal bases. I'll take 3-0. But would be 4-0 otherwise.
