the field conditions are wet it’s also really fun though because I think the grounds crew did a really good job at getting this field ready and for the players I heard this quote floating around the Dugout if it’s cold for them it’s perfect for us Luke little on the mound big left-hander how long do you think he might work tonight I would guess probably only one inning would be my guess he’s going to come in and be the opener and then I would expect May to come in second and probably try to give some length to the Cubs Charlie Blackman the leadoff man here’s a 1-1 back to the mound and little grabs it under hands to First and Bush one up one down like a cat the big fella handling that comebacker Ezekiel Tovar the batter swing in the struck him out he went upstairs at 99 it’s going to be very interesting to follow Luke little this year he kind of a weapon he becomes out of that Cubs Bullpen right now you know he’s not considered one of the leverage guys but that could change in a hurry McMahon hitting in the third spot oh nice play little bobbles briefly over to First and he gets him one two three that is your opener and we talked about Cal and and getting back to established the fastball 19 starts last year four and seven to 524 but overall in his career this is his start Number 96 134th game E’s 35 24 with a 388 and a good fast ball with movement Strikes Out Ian half so nice start for Cal quantro SE Suzuki the two-run home run to get things jump started for the Cubs last night good pitch yeah really good ping the fast so that’s coming out of his hand he blows away Suzuki after getting half here’s Cody Bellinger this is uh in the air on the infield left side McMahon calling for it and it’s a wonderful start for Cal quantro two strikeouts and a pop up against Bellinger the new pitcher will take the mound Ben Brown on a cold night JD I believe he’s going upper body command I think he’s making a bold statement here to you homered last night to get the Rockies on the board in the air left field half coming on doesn’t see it doesn’t see it down the third Baseline Morel able to make the catch Morel Swanson and Bush scheduled against Cal quantro that’ll roll towards third charging McMahon no play infield hit Christopher Morel is aboard Cubs looking to strike first Morell with an infield single wild drive base hit into left field Christopher not stopping he’ll make his way to Third and with the runner on the goal they’re at the corners and nobody out it’s pressing their advantage boy Swanson continues to hit the ball hard Michael Bush batting now Ron you got the infield back no score I think if you’re Bush the last thing you want to do is get to two strikes you want to pick out a pitch in a zone that you want and put the ball in play Early in this at bat left field Morell chases back tagging and here comes the throw from Jones it’s offline and not in time it’s a sacrifice fly good job by Bush to get the runner in against one of the top arms in baseball and it’s one nothing you got the speed of Morell versus the arm of Jones and good strong throw but it’s well offline if that’s right on the money they might have a play on him again cold night tough to get a good grip on that baseball there been a lot of moisture on the field so I think you both clubs would be looking to take advantage of balls hit to the Outfield a is loaded with a couple of walks back to back for Cal quantril and here comes Daryl Scott the rocky pitching coach out to the mound Miguel Amaya is the next hitter the number nine hitter the catcher all loaded up one away one nothing comes quantal deal swing and a highfly ball out towards left Center playable though for Doyle under it and he makes the catch tagging from third and coming in to score is Dansby swans and a pair of sack flies here in inning number two of the Cubs extend the lead to nothing that 373 on base percentage is representative of a team not only swinging the bat well but taking their walks and now they take a third walk in the inning and you have to deal with with one of the hottest hitters in the sport SE Suzuki L drive base hit into right field that’ll score a couple as tockman races around into third is half scrambling back to First and getting tagged out as Suzuki he gets a two-run single and the Cubs put four on the board here in the second inning Ryan mcmah will lead off there’s a base hit up the middle for McMahon his team leading ninth hit of the Year Charlie one behind with eight just a short swing compact he’s a little bit wider than normal hands are almost in a fire position so he’s seen it really really well on the ground Herer Swans in bus double play and Ben Brown is fired up and a pitching change as Jaylen beaks will take over SE Suzuki one for two that one drilled in the air left field on its way and gone SE Suzuki homered last night he’s gone yard here again tonight and it is 5 nothing I think he’s feeling pretty good yeah dancing in the rain do you mean that guy or do you mean Suzuki pretty good too yeah two RBI single last time now he goes deep Jacob Stallings leads off for the Rockies here top of the sixth inning and Stallings leans on one to deep left and this one is going to short hop the wall that was interesting by Ian hap who’s a gold Glover I think he thought that was a homer yes and it wasn’t really close not with where that goes back and Jacob said thank you I’ll take the double first and third for the Rockies with two down and Chris Bryant still looking for that first hit this year comes up hard ground ball to the left side and that gets the Rockies on the board and it’s the first base hit of the year for Chris Bryant it snaps in 0418 this here in 0 for 28 going back to last year the longest drought of his career Nolan Jones with two on this is slowly hit to third well throws it away that’s going to allow a run to score Bryant gets to Third and with McMahon Crossing home plate all of a sudden it’s five to2 and the door opens up a little bit for the Rockies Morel his third error this is to third Morel another chance at it and throws him out quantro trouble with the walks in the second inning it’s that way for Tyler Kinley here he’s issued back to back walks after the single had the bases loaded and nobody out drive base hit center field bus is coming in Porter racing around on his heels tuckman to third Amaya is going to Scamper on to Second here comes tman and the Cubs score three times it is eight two that’ll work Rockies make a little noise score too you think maybe it’s going to be a ball game and the CBS just come back and respond with three of their own still nobody out Brent Doyle couple of strikeouts tonight for Doyle and that’s down the left field line and with Doyle’s speed he’s going to have himself a double yeah I know there’s been a couple of strikeouts tonight for Brenton but seems like every game he’s thrown out at least one knock and and the bats do look better than last year wouldn’t you yes and that’s why he came into the ball game hitting 250 first and third one out Charlie’s one for three tonight single back in the third and Charlie drives this down the right field line that’s a fair ball into the corner Doyle has scored Stallings to Third and he’ll get a stop sign there Charlie over an second by about 20 ft but no harm as the where went to the relay man and not back toward second base so Charlie Blackman continues to break five hits in the last 24 hours top of the eighth inning it’s 8 to3 the Rockies Trail they have the bases loaded though and one down and a new pitcher for the Cubs is the veteran right-hander Hector nerys and Jake cave is going to pinch hit for Allen tros that’s lined to the Gap in left center field that’ll score at least two Doyle will stop at third on a pinch double by jakee cave and it’s now 8 to5 but Here Comes Chuck two for four including an RBI double last inning slowly hit Herer with the Dr not going to get it and the ball gets away two- run score Charlie’s hustle pays off we’ve got a one-run game here come the Rockies now all of a sudden the tying run is at first this ball is driven to deep center field long run for tman he can’t get there Charlie to third Charlie’s going to score easily toar has tied it up 88 how do you like that what an inning and the Cubs are in business now minute first and third with nobody out and now Cubs hottest hitter all spring Suzuki that’s the third McMahon coming home and it gets away run scores Stallings couldn’t hang on to a Cubs Ley 98 two down Brenton Doyle at the plate here’s the pitch on the ground to short Swanson goes to hoer ball game comes with and they sweep the Rockies and what a great start to this Homestead
