I guess keep throwing cutters until he puts it in play

Colome REALLY fighting his control.

Trade an out for a run. 2 down!

This is where I'd take Colome out.

Bote with an absolutely TERRIBLE at bat

I agree using Colome here is a bad idea but also you'd expect your closer with like a 0.00 ERA can get 3 outs before giving up 4 runs.

He has to face three batters. I assume if Colome doesn't get this out here he's done.

Colome making me really nervous here

Whew. Glad the Cubs had a pitcher hit there.

Dunno about leaving Marshall in.

Damn seeing eye single

Hendricks is leaving some balls over the middle of the plate. Just can't center him.

Keep walking the worst hitter

Seconded

Cubs honestly don't look good against Lopez. If he can settle down and stop putting people on base with walks I think he'll be effective the rest of the game.

Also I feel like he was right on the outside changeup and fouled it off. Not sure why Grandal went back to it.

That seemed like it should've been caught

Lopez definitely rusty but he's got good stuff. That slider can be something for him.

Did I tell you guys how much I like this team?

Giolito just hit 97

Nomar rocking that .286 slugging

Moncada really having some trouble this year on defense.

GIT ON BACK THERE!

Some good at-bats today

Moncada back at 3rd. Phew.
