I love watching guys like Kershaw pitch, even if it's against us. He's just strike 1 strike 2 all the time, and that curveball is a genuine wipeout pitch. Luckily we've got a guy like this of our own.

That rundown was almost a disaster. Whew. 2 out.

Why is Hawk wearing sunglasses at midnight?

Flowers can't catch it again, but it's called strike 3. Alright then!

Single for Teixiera. 3-2.

Flowers can't catch Belisario very well.

This heckler is really bad.

There's a thread for SABR questions. Marty34 should go here to ask questions. Don't feed him anymore. He's gotten fat and bloated off troll food. On topic, I don't know what options we're looking at for DH next year, besides maybe Viciedo? I don't know if his offense will fit there, though. I'd definitely accept his current line there - .296/.354/.472/.826 - but who knows if that will continue. If he drops back to a .700 - .750 player, you can't afford to play him at DH (probably can't afford to play him anywhere honestly). With that in mind, and assuming there's nothing else at DH on the FA market, I'd be fine with a non-qualifying offer to Dunn for a year or two.

Konerko 2 run HR! 3-2!

3-0 after sac fly.

1-0 DBacks on a Marte double.

The Cubs are a terrible team but I was really encouraged by Noesi tonight. Wonder if we did fix something in his delivery?

Throw a strike, please

Semien has a chance to be a really solid player but he needs to work on his strike zone recognition. Some more time in AAA will help him.

Losing Garcia/Eaton/Gillaspie/Dunn really hurts this lineup (not surprising, that's 1/2 of your starting lineup, but still).

Nice pick by Abreu. Whew. That had trouble written all over it the moment it left Semien's hand and nose-dived.

Another 3 pitch strikeout

And Beckham is picked off.

DeAza Ks on 3 pitches. Good start!

If the Bulls could do this and get the Lakers lottery pick this year I'd do it in a second, and I like Thibodeau a lot. I don't think Carmelo will end up here, just like any other top player ever.

I feel like I see that check swing on a hittable fastball a lot with Semien

There's the double play!
