Channel Surfing


The White Sox were irritating me so much last night that I switched over to the Cubs, only to see a clown at work in the bleachers at Wrigley Field.  Colorado left fielder Raimel Tapia caught the final out of the fourth inning and tossed the ball to a fan, the aforementioned clown.  The guy barehands the ball nicely, only to fling it back at Tapia.  Either alcohol or general ignorance or some combination thereof was at work here. 

 

If Reynaldo Lopez had been able to keep a five-run lead in Washington, I wouldn’t have felt the need to change channels.  But no, Lopez took that lead and turned it into a two-run deficit before he left in the fifth inning of what would end up a 9-5 loss.  The righty’s record now stands at 3-6 with a 6.62 ERA.  We are not amused.

 

Meanwhile, Dylan Cease won again last night for Charlotte.  Keep dotting those i’s, crossing your t’s and checking off the boxes, Dylan.  If nothing else, it’s character building.
