Cubs continue this ugly trend of giving up runs in the first inning.

Looks like I picked a good game to miss due to work.

In today's episode of nobody cares but me:
The smear of what seems like a chalk line on the brick backstop on the LH batter box side annoys me.

Sounds like something that would've happened in the Show with some of those older suction-into-wall animations.
He's suffering from an acute case of meatheaditis. First it makes you grow long blond hair. Then you try to bulk up and throw unnecessarily harder than before. Later symptoms involve refusing medical care. There is no known cure.Chicago Cubs | Chicago Bulls | Green Bay Packers | Michigan WolverinesComment

Baltimore Orioles All-Star center fielder Adam Jones was berated by racist taunts at Fenway Park while a bag of peanuts was thrown at him Monday night, calling it one of the worst cases of fan abuse he has heard in his career.
“A disrespectful fan threw a bag of peanuts at me,’’ Jones said, “I was called the N-word a handful of times tonight. Thanks. Pretty awesome.’’
“It’s different,’’ he said. “Very unfortunate. I heard there was 59 or 60 ejections tonight in the ballpark. It is what it is, right. I just go out and play baseball. It’s unfortunate that people need report to those type of epithets to degrade another human being. I’m trying to make a living for myself and for my family.
“It’s unfortunate. The best thing about myself is that I continue to move on, and still play the game hard. Let people be who they are. Let them show their true colors.’’
Red Sox officials confirmed to USA TODAY Sports that a fan threw a bag of peanuts at Jones, and was ejected from the ballpark. They were investigating the total amount of people who were ejected from the game, but believed it was about half the amount for a variety of violations.
Jones was grateful the fan was caught who threw the bag of peanuts toward him into the dugout, but wishes the punishment was much more severe.
“It’s pathetic,’’ he said. “It’s called a coward. What they need to do is that instead of kicking them out of the stadium, they need to fine them 10 grand, 20 grand, 30 grand. Something that really hurts somebody. Make them pay in full. And if they don’t, take it out of their check.
“That’s how you hurt somebody. You suspend them from the stadium, what does that mean? It’s a slap on the wrist. That guy needs to be confronted, and he needs to pay for what he’s done.
“At the end of the day, when you throw an object onto the field of play, the player has no idea what it is. What if something hit me right in the eye and I can’t play baseball anymore. Then what? I just wear it? No.
“Things like that need to be handled a little more properly, in my opinion.’’Originally posted by Gibson88Comment

Meanwhile, Sandoval is on the DL, and Marco isn't doing much in his place...great call not bringing Shaw back Dombrowski. [emoji35]

Ok, I get why the benches had to posture for the ball thrown behind Napoli, but I don't get the commentators and the Rangers' coach saying he threw over his head. It looks like he threw a ball that was meant to plunk him in the body and just sailed wide. Not even sure the move was necessary. Altuve gets hit, yes, but didn't seem intentional.
Gotta admit it's either brave or stupid to do the retaliation plunking on a guy who looks and swings a bat like a lumberjack!Comment

Pathetic, what happened to Jones. Buying a ticket doesn't give you an excuse to be an *******.
