I had forgotten that Contreras also hit a homer in his first MLB at-bat, as did Jorge Soler and Starlin Castro.

And, of course, Heyward did it...as a Brave, off of Zambrano. Current Cubs pitcher Daniel Norris also accomplished it (as a Tiger) and that remains his only home run. The Cubs also had a catcher named Cuno Barragan who hit his only MLB homer in his first at-bat in 1961. Still alive at 89.

It is more a statement about Heyward. We can give you his spot if you would rather that.

Remember though , Babe Ruth wouldn’t be able to hit in todays game . I have a feeling he’d hit better than .208

Yeah, what an awful take by denis. This one AB is enough I need to see to throw away Heyward

Heyward has stole from the Cubs organization, and fans. Hopefully, he won't steal any more playing time from young players called up.

never misses an opportunity to try and punk someone. i felt that some of our meeker players - like a darvish, would go to pieces after contreras would want to start a brawl.

He got in his face because fatty tossed his facemask 20 feet away. Alot of hate for the best offensive catcher in baseball this year.

lol @ the pirates broadcast and anyone trying to put this on ConeTreras. He was definitely checking on him after his glove kinda hit his face and the collision. Then, big boy huffs and puffs and smacks his mask away.

As a former Brewer, I am sure there is no love lost for Contreras.

Contreras should have thanked him for sliding...Vogelbach probably could have launched Willy into next Tuesday.

I can't fucking believe this...tonight's game is not on TV. Why the FUCK am I paying for Marquee if they are not carrying the live games and showing some Nascar bullshit instead? And the game isn't on nationally either. Absolute bullshit.

How does that even happen? No one is televising the game?

Happ HR 1-0

It's on youtube tv. Its free. Just launch youtube on your tv or computer.

I actually am liking their broadcast team. Much better than apple tv. One of the announcers is like a meathead baseball fan and comes off pretty good on the air.

Apple tv did have nice clear graphics which I liked.

But youtube's graphical overlays are nice as well and not too impeding to the view.

Can't find it anywhere (Xfinity/Comcast)

youtube, it's free, see my post above.

if you have comcast they have youtube app on there. at least where I am at they do. should be same in chicagoland.

Thanks, I found it there...

Interesting - they have the Giants sideline reporter in Chicago doing the game.

did they forget to turn on the lights tonight in Wrigley? looks so dark.

Yeah thats nice but it doesn't excuse the fact that we're paying for marquee and we were sold on the fact that we'd always know where to find the cubs game. Marquee absolutely deserves to be boo'd and those fuckin rickets can kiss my ass.

Not their doing, this is a Rob Manfred league-wide deal just like the Apple and Peacock deals.

Rickets is a petty man. The reason he is not spending money is because of when he got booed 2 years ago by the fans when he annouced Marquee at Cubs convention. He was shocked people booed. So now he's sticking it to the fans.

Get the fuck out... seriously? Is he trying to run this league into the ground? What a disaster.

Apple wanted a credit card # to watch the game.
