Aren't the Cards having some sort of historically bad season on the basepaths?

I have no sound. Was it stands or confirmed? because his hand was BLATANTLY off the base, should've been a really easy call.

That he should grow greens instead of crushing on MCs

Call on the field stands, he's out. Cardinals don't like it and are currently still complaining about it to the umps even though it means gently caress all at this point, NY has spoken.

Oh hey look after surrendering a home run the catcher and infield came in to talk to the pitcher. Where's Joe West to come waddling up and tell them to get back in position and play on?

Well, I had to go home early because I'm sick. Good news is I can watch the rest of the Cubs game. What's the recap so far?

All but one Cardinal who has reached base has BLAN'd. Jon Lester is a good hitter now and David Ross has deep center field power

remember Jon Lester's terrible, no-good July? If you pull that out and include today's stats so far he would have a season-long ERA of 1.73 and a WHIP of 0.913

The ESPN Cy Young Predictor has him listed as the third most likely in front of both Arrieta and Hendricks respectively, but it also says that the #2 is Jansen and :lol: at a Closer wining the Cy with the NL's crop of starting talent this year.

honestly he's been so ridiculous down the stretch that he's bound to get some serious consideration alongside Prof, Scherzer, and Bum.

That strike 3 call was very bad but I'll take it. Keep it up Jonny.

loving hell what a game by Lester. Dude has just been killing it since the second half.

Also was I the only one who noticed Rizzo just standing frozen in his crouch as Lester took it to first past him unassisted? :allears:

Do not make any sudden movements or you will spook the Lester and he'll drop the ball.
