The opener didn't stop Fedde from giving up a dong to Henderson. Nothing against Fedde, he pitched a pretty good game, but my hunch is that Gunnar doesn't hit one off him in the first inning or off Grant later in the game. It just seems pointless unless the idea is specifically to get Taylor consistent innings. Still think if they're gonna do this opener strategy, at least use a guy like Hicks or a handedness matchup.

well now the birthday boy can go relax

lol that works

Beni is due

cool

2 hits against a guy with a career 6+ ERA isn't gonna cut it

I don't think it's like comic sans. Maybe Arial vs Times New Roman. Don't think I've ever seen a jersey where the name had a serif font. I'm reading anti-Chinese sentiment more than anything tbh.

yikes bro

what's wrong with Kanji? These twitter posts sound like some Meiji era propaganda

prophetic. oh wait, there was an opener. seemed to work well, Fedde looks great against the top of the order.

this game is moving right along.

nice block, Badley.

This is what happens when you keep signing geriatrics and expect them to play defense. Wait, Hays is younger than me, why do I think he's like 40

Pope Leo working overtime with all these Chicago sport miracles. Package for Angel wasn't bad either even tho I luv her. Now bring back Thibs and Deng because why not Deng rocks

Chase "On Base" Meidroth.

The “feels like” is actually a degree warmer at 7. Why would they even schedule a night game to begin with? It’s not like it’s a new phenomenon that it’s cold in April. Has to be annoying for the 7 fans who actually bought tickets.

The forecast says between 34 and 36 tomorrow. Guess those two degrees really makes a difference.

I don't feel like reading a WaPo article, but the word 'subsidize' is doing the heavy lifting and is misleading. Subsidies are dumb, investments in are not. Countless case studies to the contrary.

The Giants have a worse run differential than the Sox

What a series!!!

I like Infante Acuña

he's had a good series
