UNREAL: Carson Kelly hits a ball to the ivy that is caught, but a different ball pops out ๐ Wrigley Field is something else, man. One of the most unique parks in all of sports.

UNREAL: Kevin Alcantara, who got recalled from triple A TODAY, cranked a foul homer while Jed Hoyer was in the booth. Jed goes โI told Couns he was gonna homer today, I needed that to stay fair.โ 2 pitches later, he homers ๐

Please watch this at least 3 times. Once for the dunk, once for Mirkโs face while heโs on his way up, and once for Ty Rodgers in the background ๐

Cubs yet again screwed out of a run. PCA, Q and Craig were all LIVID about this missed balk (cannot step off the rubber in the windup) I donโt necessarily blame the umps for not seeing this right away, but why on Earth isnโt it reviewable?? We have to stop arbitrarily deciding which plays can and canโt be reviewed.

Cubs did something to piss off the baseball gods They lost the game on this play. 99 times out of 100 that ball stays foul. Not even sure how thatโs possible. 2 losses all year when leading after 8 and they came in the last 4 days.

58 seconds of Dan Hurley at the very beginning of open practice. Sweat pants, coffee in hand, already screaming. Would expect nothing less ๐

FIRE ME UP ASSMAN If Iโm Craig Counsell, thereโs no SHOT Iโm sending this dude down again. Has pretty much delivered every single time weโve needed him to.

โI would k*ll myself probablyโ โI just dunked the sh*t outta that mferโ โWe didnโt come here to get b*tchedโ This team is locked in on the court and loose as can be off of it โ and their chemistry is a big reason why theyโre still dancing. Maybe my favorite Illini team ever.

Will an umpire literally ever call blocking the base here or is that just one of those rules that we pretend exists? Just seems ridiculous that 7% of the bag is exposed and youโre expected to not come off it for a millisecond, especially while being pushed by a defender.

โHave you looked [the cocktagon] up? Do you know what he was talking about?โ Brad Underwood: โI have heard storiesโ ๐ Big Cat asked this question to the Illini head coach on the biggest sports podcast in the world (Pardon My Take)

Get you a PR team like Jeremy Fears. Dude got called out on a national scale for his dirty play and was rightfully criticized, he didnโt come back from cancer. Heโs not a war hero. Shame on the media for thinking the public is dumb enough to fall for it

Cubs broadcaster is in the middle of discussing how they lead the majors in homers this month, and then Carson Kelly hits a homer ๐ The Cubs have TEN more homers this month than the next closest team, the White Sox.

โThe fights the stands are unfortunate, but you got people in the stands competing tooโ ๐๐๐ All jokes aside, anyone fighting over sports is an absolute loser, but this means something to the city. The overwhelming majority are great fans, both sides. What a rivalry.

excuse me WHAT?!! This ball comes nowhere near the rim, meaning the shot clock shouldโve expired and the ball goes to Illinois. Instead, UConn gets to chuck a 3 and gets โfouledโ for an and-1. They reviewed it and just completely ignored this???? Iโve actually never seen anything like this in my life. Why are we even reviewing if weโre gonna blatantly get it wrong

Dansby Swanson gets a lot of shit but thereโs not a guy who hustles more/has a higher IQ in the sport. Stole 2 runs today, homered for another and oh also, has the 3rd highest hard-hit rate in the NL. Didnโt even mention the defense. Will never take a guy like that for granted.

Adam throws not one, but two straight pitches at Matt Shawโs head. The Padres hit Nico Hoerner in the head a few innings ago. They threw multiple pitches at Seiyaโs head last night. None of this looks intentional but if Iโm the Cubs, Iโm getting absolutely sick and tired of it.

I think thereโs a legitimate chance that Dansby/Nico/Pete is the best middle of the field in baseball history. My goodness is it fun to watch these guys work.
