vs. CUBS, 8/22

[Malike]

Horrible at bat by Schoop. Completely overmatched.

He's had about 300 of those this year. We should all be used to it by now.

Without even knowing that Jones said anything I can imagine some playful banter between the two after making that play. Now I have no idea if it was playful banter or not but I assumed Jones would give him some grief for making that play on him.

Jones was smiling and talking to Jake after the 2-0 changeup.

He's not going to throw you a strike on 0-1, Schoop. Come on. Think.

Well it's easier said than done. It's a 90 mph slider. Not much velocity difference than the fastball. It comes out of his hand as a strike and then drops out of the zone. It probably has tight spin making it that much harder to recognize and lay off.

[clapdiddy]

Didn't see 1 strike that whole at bat.

Oh well...maybe we'll get to their bullpen.

Between Schoop and Davis I dont know who swung at worse pitches. Over anxious. Make him throw you a freaking strike!

It's Schoop's first year. He at least has somewhat of an excuse.

[Norfolk orioles]

I'm not sure who had the more pathetic at bat, schoop or Davis.

Probably Davis, because he's a vet and a lefty. Schoop is a rookie right handed batter.

God Davis is terrible.

We seriously have to consider Christian walker THIS season.

Davis will be below .150 by the time the playoffs start.

I thought it was Hendricks... But Wada has been solid as well. And the day game curse of the Os.

I don't know the order. That's the two.

"Hendricks" always worries me...

"Root, root, root for THE CUBBIES."

Did I hear, "Root, root, root for THE ORIOLES" just now ??? :eektf:

[slakattack]

OK, bye bye Brian, thanks for playing.

[WEAVERMAN]

I'm going to get on the "I hate the Cubs" bandwagon now.

I am a long time rider.

Davis already has a hit today, so he has raised his average.

T.J brings the gas can with him i see.

People seem to forget this.

I guess Buck doesn't like to use Hunter anymore?

[Norfolk orioles]

I really do not understand why McFarland is in this game after yesterday's off day.

Why not brad brach?
