IST: Cubs vs. Cardinals

[Parade_Rain]

Has nothing to do with being 12 games up. BUt has everything to do with not being able to execute a simple fundamental. Rizzo, for as great as he has been, is trying to pull a sweeping curve ball a mile off the plate when all he had to do was make contact and get the ball into the air.

I cant remember a single sacrifice fly that scored a run this year. That's not me expecting too much just a simple thing they should have learned in the minors

You may want to have your selective amnesia checked.

Cubs currently have 18 SH (sac bunts) and 13 SF (Sac Fly).

You have never hit a baseball I see.

You are right, I never tried to drive a curveball that were way off the plate

I remember tons of sac flies with a runner on 2nd base

Tim McCarver is basically suggesting they should throw at more people in future games....

If I am Lackey, if I get two quick outs. Im plucking the 3rd batter and really heat this up

I wasn't paying attention when Lackey hit Moss. Was it obviously intentional or something that started this?

Hit him on the elbow. Dont know if on purpose. Garcia was def. on purpose or it seemed like it considering the pitch before almost hit Bryant as well.

Lackey battled tonight. Give him props for hanging tough after throwing a ton of pitches through 2

 

[Ari Bear]

It's the fault of the hitting coach. He should be all over their asses about executing this yet they continue to drive outside pitches in these situations

Yeah makes sense. Fair enough.

Can't believe he got thru 6 with as many pitches as he threw in 3 innings.

Lackey kept them in game after tough start..
Bullpen doing their part, keeping it a 1 run game

Need the bats to pick up their part and score a couple runs here..
