5/6 - 5/19 Game Discussion Thread

The trivia question answers for "Who got the first hit and HR off of Paul Skenes" are looking pretty good to confuse people years down the road - The hit was Miles Mastrobuoni and the HR was Nico Hoerner.

Looks like Steele doesn't have it today. Cubs will have to get back in this against the Pirates pen. Guessing Skenes will probably go 5 and qualify for the W.

Edit: Nope. Done in the 5th after back to back hits to start the inning.

That's right Skenes, here we don't have Robo Umps, just regular blind ones.

Getting dicey out there and the pitching counts is getting high.

And there's the hook.

[bcruise]

Skenes is going to take an extra 2 ER hit after leaving the game as Nicolas completely loses the zone and walks in 3 Cubs. Cubs walking their way right back into the game at 6-4.

That's almost not fair.

Fleming walks another in and gives up an infield single to Tauchman. It's tied 6-6 and the tarp immediately comes out.

Fried is running through the Mets lineup with his curveball. No hits allowed through six but his pitch count is in the mid eighties

Mr. Skenes welcome to the Pirates!

He's through 7 with no hits but is almost certainly done at 109. This is gonna have to be the combined variety.
