Don’t know if it was called from the dugout, but love that bunt there with Donovan. Cubs were fortunate to get the out at first.
Donovan is a fundamentally sound ballplayer.
Yep, and an especially heads-up move with Busch having just flubbed the last play. Best case scenario, Boyd or the third baseman airmail the throw to the outfield. Worst case, you have two in scoring position for Herrera/Contreras.

Some of that great Cubbie D at work this inning.
Swanson with a throw Winn makes in his sleep. And Busch with a bonehead throw to 2B.

contreras: clutch hit!
Contreras: how many times tagged out on the base paths?

Nice hit Contreras but you're a dope on the bases.

Still the dumbest player on the team, though.

Do they not have a better player at Memphis, better than tonight’s center fielder?
Umm yes. Siani is as good or better! He absolutely is.
You know a player sucks when someone suggests siani is better than them and it’s not a joke
Other than base stealing, how is Victor better than Siani or even Church?
Scott isn’t much better hitter but walks more and he’s a much better weapon on the base paths
I'm not a Scott hater by any means, but my point is... He isn't truly any better than any option they have. The org is anemic at CF..
Scott also scores more runs drives in more runs and has more power than siani
You can't compare what 2 guys do in 2 different leagues. I'm not saying that Siani would be better than Scott, although it wouldn't take much to be better. Scott is far from even good. I doubt the win/ loss would be any different with Siani. There's no reason to defend a sub- par CF in Scott. It's just the truth man.
I’m not defending Scott but he’s better than siani any day of the week. More power more stolen base ability gets on base more drives in more scores more but I’m sure you’re right that wouldn’t help win games more than siani who is worse in all of those categories
You right. It's not even close.

I'm fine with that out on the basepaths. If the throw goes through to home, he's standing on 2nd. If it's cut off, we scored a run. Good baserunning.

Yes, that was unnecessary, because they had no chance at throwing out Hampson.

but there was no way Crowe-armstrong was going to throw out Hampson. unnecessary for contreras to go for 2nd base.

The runner was scoring regardless of the throw being cut off. Dumb baserunning decision.
