Hips and legs is were all the power comes from for all hitters.

He pretty much doesn't move his legs though. It's all upper body power.

I'm still at work "watching" on the MLB gameday thing, but Wood's FB velocity was 90-91 at the start of the game. We know this is the danger area for him, he gets taken deep a lot when it dips down there. And in the past two innings it's been lower, more like 89.5

The Cubs can't hit, so Wood's velocity p.much doesn't matter

Its funny comparing the way we match up against LHP this year compared to last. Kiké - Barnes - Forsythe over Granderson - Grandal - Utley easily.

They just showed on the video board that Willson's homer was the longest postseason homer ever recorded by Statcast.

They've still got another one.

Besides, it wasn't Dusty Baker using a challenge on the very first play.

lmao if Taylor takes off immediately he's probably safe at first.

Try not to throw another meatball to Bellinger, Jake.
