Stone is free from the bench.

Benching our top average hitter in Mr. Vic.

Superb start of a thread today.

that was a quick first inning.

A lead! no doubting Thomas. Dingers are nice with runners on.

I am watching streaming on Roku. Just two out in top of inning when you posted that. Way behind real life.
Edit. Top of first that was. Way behind. Maybe the Governor is screening live feeds to Florida?

need about 4 more with Corbin on the hill, but it's a start!

is this the same Patrick Corbin on the mound that usually starts for us?

he's decided he's playing for a contender again so he's back to good corbin.

He's not all that aware.

I was watching the Cubs broadcast with Boog Schiambi. Like him as an announcer. They said Taillon would probably only go three innings. That probably too bad for us.

Tailon has 4 ks through 3. Just had that one hickup. I'm guessing the speed of Joey and Dom on base distracted him when Thomas was up.

Is Corbin fixed??

ERA under 5!!

NatsAllThe Way · « **Reply #14:** May 04, 2023, 01:59:28 PM »

I refuse to believe Corbin is fixed. But I'll take the positives where I can.

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #15:** May 04, 2023, 02:01:12 PM »

56 pitches through 5. Maybe can get this Corbin through 7.

By the way, they didn't have time travel in star wars. I was going to say this looks like 2019 Corbin. I guess that's what the mean by a galaxy a long time ago far away.

well, his wife didn't want to discuss it, but they decided no more kids

2nd Thomas homered to left center (408 feet), Meneses scored and Smith scored. 0 3

Cubbie Empire 0
Rebel Alliance 3

IanRubbish · « **Reply #18:** May 04, 2023, 02:09:14 PM »

Who kidnapped Patrick Corbin and replaced him with this imposter? 64 pitches for Corbin usually takes 3 innings, not 6

I'm watching cartoons with a 4-year-old: Blaze and the Monster Machines (Nickelodeon On Demand, free).

Nice catch Call!

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #21:** May 04, 2023, 02:23:27 PM »

77 pitches, 55 strikes through 7.

As for Call, his path to a big league career would be easier if he really could play center.

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #22:** May 04, 2023, 02:25:28 PM »

looks like everyone from the umps to the Cubs to the Nats base runners are trying to catch an early flight.

nobleisthyname · « **Reply #23:** May 04, 2023, 02:26:03 PM »

Smith really trying to get his SLG% up.

NatsAllThe Way · « **Reply #24:** May 04, 2023, 02:26:16 PM »

Baserunning blunder... drink.
