2020-07-24 (Opening Day): Brewers (Woodruff) at Cubs (Hendricks) [Brewers lose, 3-0]

[TURBO]

So who had Arcia in the betting pool for the first two hits of the season?

 

Probably only his Mom...

[topper09er]

Don Kessinger at SS

 

He was 2nd place with 10 starts

[topper09er]

Andy Pafko!

 

Nailed it.

 

Other 1B was Charlie Grimm

[wildcat83]

I’ll give Sogard 1 more AB before I’m done with him for the rest of the season.

[adambr2]

Consider this sequence of events:

 

In the last 2 years, we

 

1) Hired Eric Sogard for a bit over 2 million

2) Fired him because he was so bad at his job

3) Payed him to stay home

4) Hired him back at double his previous salary

[MoreTrife]

Launch angle not working for sogard

[pacopete4]

I would rather lead off Yelich than try the Sogard experiment.

[markedman5]

Change up......change up......change up

[topper09er]

Change up......change up......change up

 

I know, they should move up in the box

[topper09er]

Can someone tell CC this pitcher can only face lefties. The experiment is over

[PinaMadness]

How fitting Claudio would be the first reliever to make an appearance this year.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Little better inning there. Hold 'em and hope.

 

This roster is...weird offensively? It feels like Yeli+ Hiura and a lot of league average-ish guys? Which should be good in theory, but it just looks odd to me as I watch it for the first time competitively.

[markedman5]

Got to make that play

[markedman5]

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

I'll say this:

 

Road games? Way easier to watch without fans in attendance. Game 163 excepted.

[wildcat83]

Like Wahl’s pace... keep er movin.

 

Moustakas having a good night for Cincy.

[trwi7]

Commercial breaks last longer than that half inning. 5 friggin' pitches.

[adambr2]

Hendricks can probably go again tomorrow as hard as we're making him work.

[markedman5]

Is this Greg Maddox?

[pacopete4]

Starting to put a damper on this opener. It’d be great if anyone else besides Arcia showed up.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Ha. No pace of play issues tonight.

[Oxy]

Ha. No pace of play issues tonight.

 

Kinda. There's been no offense and we are barely over 2/3rds through the game and it's still 2 hours in.

[PinaMadness]

So who sang during the 7th inning stretch?

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Ha. No pace of play issues tonight.

 

Kinda. There's been no offense and we are barely over 2/3rds through the game and it's still 2 hours in.

 

Maybe it just feels fast

[trwi7]

So who sang during the 7th inning stretch?

 

Attention whore Bill Murray.
