I noticed Lilly has a few errors this season.
Do you think he just wants to give the other time a chance? Or do you think he’s lulling them in to a false sense of security?

he hits himself into scoring position.

0-2 on Bradley.
I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

I can't believe he took that pitch.
It got called a ball, but that’s a crazy take with 2 strikes…

That umpire handled it exactly right
He let Moehler say his thing and went back behind the plate.

Figures
These days, it’s either that, or he gets so exasperated he just gives up on trying to exclaim how frustrated he is, and then just sighs and swallows sadness. Maybe sends some faxes.
