Soto shows bunt, takes a FB waist high, inner 3rd. Cutter misses the backdoor by 2-3 inches. 1-1 Change outer half, rolled over to Bellinger at 1st, takes it to the bag, 2 down. Taillon's stuff looks sharp so far.

Wells... Cutter backs up outside by 4-6 inches. 1-0 Soft throw over just to check on Judge. FB down and in hit high to deep right center, Crow-Armstrong goes back to his left, catches on the edge of the track. Inning over. The wind is not a factor against HR today, in fact, it's blowing out to right at 8 mph.
Bottom 1, 0-0 16 pitches in the 1st for Taillon.

Happ leads off for the Cubs... Cole misses high with a FB at 94. 1-0 FB in the zone up and in, swung under, 1-1 FB misses outside by 3 inches, Wells pauses, but the call is correct, 0% on Gameday. 2-1 Curve thigh high, outer half, driven to left center, gets to the wall for a leadoff double, bad start for Cole.

I live in Chicago so I have to listen to the Cubs TV station. Weird because Girardi is co-announcing.

Tauchman takes a slider that misses the back door, 1-0 FB at the very top of the zone, outer half, 96, 1-1; 10-15% on Gameday Cutter again on the high inside corner, taken, 1-2 FB at the top, inner half, humped up to 98, Tauchman spoils it. Flies open some, misses almost a foot outside with a FB, 2-2 Cutter down and in, Tauchman stays with it, pulls it foul. Cole looks in, then steps off, chases Swanson back to 2nd. Curve had good drop but bad location, wound up in the middle, bounced foul near home. FB inside corner below the top at 97, spoiled again. Tauchman working Cole over here.

9th pitch of the at bat was an attempt to back door a cutter, but it missed outside by 3 inches. Cole starts walking off, but he's wrong, it was 0% and not close. FB near the high outside corner, it clips the edge on Gameday about 5%, doesn't get the call, and looks toward the dugout for help. Blake comes out to talk it over. The ump comes out and they question his calls politely. Bases loaded, two down for Paredes.

Torres stupid error has added at least 10 pitched to Cole’s pitch count.

Torres stupid error has added at least 10 pitched to Cole’s pitch count. And 2 unearned runs now. So far.
