Yeah, you beat me to it. The high counts are so boring.

I vehemently hate the video game crowd, but I understand FOX is trying different shit out for when playoffs/World Series comes around.

They can’t put the fake fans in the first 10 rows because they would distract the pitcher.

He's pitched alright. His biggest mistake was the 1 pitch up and over the plate to Gamel. Then he held him at 3rd with nobody out. Cubs need Yu to go 5.

No one hits week ground balls to the right side of the infield like J-Hey.

Fascinating how Heyward has stretches where he's basically trying to keep his head above water he's so overmatched. He'll be under the gun in a 60 game season. See how he takes the pressure.

Bad base running by Caratini cost them a run. Should of been a double. Nice of the Brewers to show the Cubs how to correctly do a run down.

Nice to see Schwarbs connect on one there. KB has to step it up.

Almora must come in for Heyward. Put Happ in Right and Almora in Center.

Fox has to stop with the fake cheering when the road team scores...

Yeah its two games in, but is anyone noticeably an improved hitter? The only thing that is noticeable so far is that Rizzo looks like a 16-year old kid.

Seriously. It is what it is this year. Just broadcast the game the way it is. Silence, noise, whatever.

It's silly when the crowd goes wild after the 3rd out in an inning where the Cubs gave up 2 runs.

Only 15 more years of Heyward's contract, right?

If Ross wants to let people know this is his team now and not Maddon's, just like he made the decision to start Hendricks instead of Lester on opening day -- Heyward needs to be on the bench tomorrow. This is embarrassing. Put Almora in, Nico, someone from the minors. I don't care.

Ross has to pinch-hit for Heyward in situations like todays. But, possibly Theo won't allow it.

He would be seen as trying to keep a black man down.

Didn't Heyward buy David Ross an upgraded hotel suite for every road game in 2016? These guys were locker neighbors when Heyward was a rookie with Atlanta in 2010.

The Brewers have a nice selection of uniforms. The far left one is probably my least favorite though.
