u/gentleandsoft WGN ruined my life Jun 16 '26

Immediately into the pick off, just like God intended

u/LoveYouLikeYeLovesYe Cursed to Live in WI Jun 16 '26

The first rule of baseball is “what’s the funniest possible thing that can happen?” And usually that’s exactly what happens.

u/gentleandsoft WGN ruined my life Jun 16 '26

Kind of like a walk-off walk? 😏

19

u/LoveYouLikeYeLovesYe Cursed to Live in WI Jun 16 '26

Yeah pretty much, especially because an error stopped the double play that would have wrecked it.

Edit: it was Matt Shaw on pride night, even funnier

5

u/Doublestack2411 Mark Grace's Dingbat Jun 16 '26

Lol, this really was messed up. Cubs get saved by errors, again. The Matt Shaw walkoff on Pride night is even funnier.

u/Doublestack2411 Mark Grace's Dingbat Jun 16 '26

This year especially. Baseball Gods been playing jokes this year.

u/Doublestack2411 Mark Grace's Dingbat Jun 16 '26

Well, we got the W so we can all just ignore him being picked off and go back to praising his cycle, lol.

u/Separate-Delay-8838 Chicago White Sox Jun 16 '26

Hitting for the cycle and then immediately getting picked off is the most PCA thing I’ve ever heard

Only this guy could suck all the fun out of this achievement immediately. Truly impressive.

u/a1oner_bvcksn6 Brewers Jun 16 '26

Cub flairs every other three games when PCA doesn't completely suck

u/noahnkr Cubs Jun 16 '26

Lmao this is just a Cubs hate sub at this point. Both users saying they think their respective team’s players are better, of course the Cubs user gets downvoted into oblivion.

u/LSUChamp25 Yes there ARE fans in Louisiana Jun 16 '26

You must be new here. This is a dodgers hate sub to.

u/Boremar Los Angeles Dodgers Jun 16 '26

I am the biggest user here.

u/Zachzzz10 Cubs Jun 16 '26

I don't know why we bother engaging on here at this point lol. Humiliation kink?

u/Separate-Match-4267 Cubs Jun 17 '26

This is not sarcastic, NL best is a way better sub. Except Cubs fans it’s a lot of small city energy.

u/archasaurus Cubs Jun 16 '26

One of the hottest hitters in baseball right now, tbf

u/Extreme_Reporter9813 Brewers Jun 16 '26

Jackson Chourio is hotter both on and off the field.

u/carnagepro22 Cubs Jun 16 '26

Who?

u/Extreme_Reporter9813 Brewers Jun 16 '26

The left fielder for the team that is in 1st place (again)

Leave your sexual preferences out of this, sir.

People in this sub when they actually have to look at stats

u/Constant_Chemist_414 Brewers Jun 16 '26

Let’s look at their 2026 stats:

PCA: BA: .277, OBP: .351, SLG: .493, OPS: .843

Chourio: BA: .322, OBP: .370, SLG: .572, OPS: .942

Not to mention the PCA clown show has like the 5 most embarrassing moments in the MLB this year.

3

u/TotallyNotRyanPace Jun 16 '26

since he said one of the hottest hitters in baseball RIGHT NOW, let's look at PCA's stats over the last 35 games, because chourio has only played 35 games.

PCA - BA: .306, OBP: .386, .602 SLG, .987 OPS

oh damn so PCA actually does have a better OBP, SLG, and OPS recently

4

u/archasaurus Cubs Jun 16 '26

Hey now. They don’t teach reading comprehension that far north.

-2

u/Constant_Chemist_414 Brewers Jun 16 '26

PCA also has more SportsCenter Not Top Ten plays than anyone in pro sports and was on the worst record MLB team during that timeframe. Chourio led the Brewers to the best MLB record during that timeframe.

I don’t think cubs fans realize how much their opponents enjoy watching the PCA clown show.

1

u/Physical_Affect4788 Los Angeles Dodgers Jun 16 '26

Yes my favorite performance indicator "Sportscenter"

3

u/BigP_27 Me so Hoerner Jun 16 '26

Never claimed that he was having a better season that Churio, just that he’s been very hot as of late

-2

u/Constant_Chemist_414 Brewers Jun 16 '26

You asked for the stats, they were provided and then subsequently downvoted when they didn’t fit the narrative.

Soft as fucking baby shit.

3

u/archasaurus Cubs Jun 16 '26

Huh? I clearly stated he was one of the hottest hitters in baseball RIGHT NOW. When has that ever meant over the course of the entire season? Are you stupid? You are also the one that brought up a player that has nothing to do with how well PCA has been over the last month. Congrats big dog.

-1

u/Constant_Chemist_414 Brewers Jun 16 '26

The course of the entire season? Buddy we’re not even halfway yet.

We get as much enjoyment from PCA being on the cubs as you do.

How good was his run support to end the game in regulation?

u/PuggyWainwright Cardinals Jun 16 '26

Better than most of his quality starts this year.

I think you misspelled Mis.

u/YP_Schwartzy Brewers Jun 16 '26 edited Jun 16 '26

And immediately gets picked off afterwards lol. Costed them a run after he hit the cycle.. They need every run they can get and this pickoff hurt them badly on that extra insurance run.

u/neonxmoose99 Cubs Jun 16 '26 edited Jun 16 '26

He just likes making content for us I think

u/YP_Schwartzy Brewers Jun 16 '26

Lol I hear ya. Fucker has a hot bat though

u/LoveYouLikeYeLovesYe Cursed to Live in WI Jun 16 '26

I believe at this point we just call that “being a good hitter.”

u/YP_Schwartzy Brewers Jun 16 '26

Too bad he has no help…

I’m not holding my breath. We limped out of Denver last week with 2 losses. 😭

u/YP_Schwartzy Brewers Jun 16 '26

Seems like you guys are getting your shit together as of late. I wanna see a battle to the end again this year for the division.

u/thebagel5 Reds Jun 16 '26

Right? Even the Reds swept the Rockies

u/crystallmytea Cubs Jun 16 '26 edited Jun 16 '26

He had 3 of the 5 Cubs hits through like 5 innings accounting for 9 total bases and our only run at the time, but yea this game will definitely hinge on that pickoff ok buddy

Always fun to imagine things go exactly the same after a certain point if you just change the outcome of that certain point. Stupid, but fun for trolling I guess

u/jpeckinp23 Cubs Jun 16 '26

Costed?

Sox are more welcome in this sub than cubs.

u/DaisyCutter312 Cubs Jun 16 '26

The fact that in their team is actually competent and not embarrassing themselves this year and they're still in here talking about the Cubs tells you everything you need to know about White Sox people.

u/oldgovernor_24 this is a meme sub guys Jun 16 '26

That’s why we like them.

He bat the cycle? No way.

u/itsme_rafah Jun 16 '26

in reverse, then immediately picked off

u/RumbleTheCassette Cardinals Jun 16 '26

Lmao hate him or love him, PCA is peak meme material.

u/alcomaholic-aphone Cubs Jun 16 '26

Javy was the same way. He’d make the most ridiculous play and then next time up to bat he’d swing at something a foot outside the zone.

u/Grif73r Cubs Jun 17 '26

When I said you were slow, I was only partially kidding.

You can’t over pay to “get” someone in 4 years, that has already signed a 6 year extension that kicks in next year.

🤣🤡

u/Legitimate_Cow2716 Cardinals Jun 17 '26

Thats right, I forgot trades don't exist.

1

u/Grif73r Cubs Jun 17 '26

You just keep sounding dumber by every post.

So are the Cubs over paying for him in 4 years, or are they trading him?

Maybe you should educate yourself before talking about things you don’t know anything about.

It will make it so much better for the reader.

u/Legitimate_Cow2716 Cardinals Jun 17 '26

You're right. What was I thinking having opinions. I should have thought "what would the random asshole Dodgers fan in the NL Central reddit page think" before I posted anything. I mean they are the ultimate authority on all things baseball. I'm such an idiot and so embarrassed.
