balk on 2nd & 3rd? Cubs 1-0 so I’ll talk but I thought you couldn’t balk with a runner on 3rd.

2-0, even better

where the hell did you get that idea from?

pls win cubs

The best part was the fact that they tried to bait Baez to chase after some knuckle balls, and when that failed they just intentionally walked him because they didn't want to challenge him.
Then Bote gets a bomb.


>10 pitch walk by Heyward
Nice

Balking is any improper motion feigning a throw over the plate to catch a runner off guard who can’t get back to the base in time, typically a runner trying to steal the next base. With runners on 2nd & 3rd there are no base left to steal except home, which is where the pitcher is throwing towards anyway, or so I thought. But technically you’re right, there’s no specific rule preventing an ump from calling it for the 3rd base runner.

look up the walk off balk there was one last year it's pretty cool

I mean, if it was an electronic strike zone the Ump made all the right calls, but I wanted to see Davis get walked, then Schwarber intentionally walked so they could pitch to Darvish.

Darvish has 44 -/+ pitches to make it though 3 innings to get a win

Will he make it?

Imagine winning a Serious on a WOB.

Joe pulls him with 2 outs in the 5th.

darvish 3 K's. Surprised.

Schwarber being absolutely fearless in the baserunning.

speed demon schwarbie

Of course we'd got umpballed.

>schwarber wet the hammock

More like the Ump is blind

Darvish left him out to dry. Can't whiff the bunt.

>Schwumbert

Darvish never tagged first so is he still out?

More like Schwarber’s fat little legs couldn’t spin the Earth fast enough.

What does that say about your defense that he doubled off you through the gap.

Bah Gawd, Darvish might be in line for the win now.

>selling dragon dildos where kids are present

I figured he'd be yanked sometime in the 3rd. It's nice to be wrong.

Ban the shift

Fuck the shift, bloop lead off double off the third base line for Rizzo

BOTE

whoa

Press F for Happ and Russell.

Bote for MVPOTD

I was going to say umpball too, but Len then spotted Walker landing on the bag before he wiffed at Baez.
So gotta be fair.

Is it just me or is every city in the south full of Chicago fans?

Now that strike 3 was umpball.

WERe like a parasite. Chicagoans and chicagolandians literally infest every major and set up Chicago bars in them.

>Parasites
>Not Invasion force

There are a lot of transplants, and WGN broadcasted Cubs on cable back in the day.

>I live in cook county and can't watch the cubs because I won't pay shekelstein for ultra premium basic cable package for $200 a month

Fuck. RIP shut out

Tonight's game is on ABC.

I just thieve it from plebbit streams.

Take that, Noseberg.

it hurts to watch

LBI has a revolver on you, you're going to finish this game.

[W]

Davish flirted with disaster early on but walked away with the win and his first quality start of the season.
The offense was chugging along as well with Bote having his first 2 HR game of his career
A few base running miscues, but nothing big.

Maddon notches his 400th win as the Cubs manager too.
