His knee buckled. I hope he's okay. 

Wiemer, looked like an ankle to me.

Counsell seems to be another guy who just doesn't seem to get it with pitching moves. He's not going to be able to just blow off Sophia after the game. Chicago media will eat.

I was wondering how he was handling the media, and how they are treating him.

He was basically only given softball questions here, got off the hook on a constant basis by the company men/women paid to ask the questions.

I'd like to watch him squirm with the Chicago media, but are they grilling him, or letting him slide?

Bauers get hurt?

No, Wiemer got hurt.

The most beautiful sound in the world.

Cardinal fans booing or Cub fans booing?

What’s the defensive alignment in the OF after the Wiemer injury?

Bauers, Perkins and Churio are the outfielders now

Man, that's a bang bang right there.

[Zad Fnark]

Not used to Rickie with short hair.

They have been winning so not too bad. They liked he pulled plug on Alozay as closer. Still honeymoon period.

He looks comfortable as a manager.

[owbc]

Not to be a Counsell defender but he had his hands tied today with their bullpen availability. I don't think today is the day he's going to get grilled by the media. 

[Bulldogboy]

Play Ortiz man...

[RobertCrawley]

Great hit and base running for Ortiz!

Chourio

Did Rickie dial up a safety squeeze?

So glad we didn't go on contact.

Let's not revise history just because he's on the Cubs now.

This defense makes me nervous

Not sure about Ortiz throwing to Sanchez 

Hopefully Megill records a few strike outs & induces a pop up to the left side 

[yfinn6]

Chourio recognized a looping breaking ball he can hit and just missed, but would almost prefer him to let that go in that situation and see if he can get a fastball. 

[Brian]

3 up and 3 down would be nice. 

[edfunderburk]

Should we expect to see Brewer Hicklen in Chicago tomorrow?

If not - who gets called up for Wiemer?

I'd go with Isaac Collins personally.

[MoreTrife]

SWEET!!!!!!!!!! That's a great W. 

[Underachiever]

Dillard just said that he hoped the kid who got hit in the face with the ball was a Brewer fan so he can go home happy. 
 

That’s a reach

[RobertCrawley]

Beautiful. Just a very good win.
