SCORING! This hour on the score is being brought to you by Menard. Save big money at
Bye.
It's time for five on it. Rahimi and Croy bring you five topics on their minds today on 1043 Discord. Oh
Number one. What was the best part of the Cubs 8-4 win over the Braves last night?
I can't even go hipster on this one. You know I like to go hipster. I'll just go right for it. It's Pete Crow Armstrong for me. Pete Crow Armstrong with nothing just he just keeps doing it. It's incredible. Three for four with two home runs, a triple. Why not throw a triple in there as well? Forty-four home runs on the season. Seventh time he has had a multi-home run game. It feels like it's like once a week lately. He brings Breaks Billy Williams' record for a Cubs lefty for home runs in a season. And it's just getting harder and harder to explain and to describe and to talk about because it's just absolutely fantastic. It would have been made even better if he would have stolen a base last night. He's got 37 stolen bases now, so he's getting closer and closer to the 40-40 mark.
So for me, it's just watching PCA continue. to be amazing and wondering out loud as I did earlier, is this guy like, don't rule out 50. I know there's not a lot of real estate left here in the season for the Cubs, but I would not rule out 50 home runs for this man, considering he keeps doing things every day that we didn't think he was going to do.
I mean, let's honorable mention Alex Bregman almost hitting for the cycle.
Absolutely.
It it speaks more to how well he's been hitting at the plate than anything else. Like it the what past three months of the year. I feel like he's been the guy who the Cubs hired him to be. So credit to Alex Bregman. But yeah, it's it's PCA. The th that's it. That's the lead. And on any other day it'd be Alex Bregman. It wouldn't even be close. He was a
single shy of the cycle, was Alex Bregman. Yes, and tried to
hit for it and then ended up with an out. So
should have laid down a bunt, dragged. I mean, what can you do?
That's the question. Is bunting when you're hitting for the cycle and you're a single away, is that the move? Yeah. It's like bunting to break up a no hitter. Yeah.
Yeah, it's horrible for him and Alex Bregman he would never think of doing anything like that.
Uh by the way, entering Wednesday, PCA and Alex Bregman were first and third in wins above replacement per fangrafts uh during the second half. PCA Yeah, PCA with a four for the second four for the second half and wins about replacement. Bragman three point one. God
the turnaround. So
how about that?
The turnaround. Can we give honorable honorable mention to show to Imanaga?
Yes. While we're at it, H H M.
Yeah, six innings of one run ball featuring eight strikeouts, zero walks, retired eleven in a row at one point. So I'm done with any other honorable mentions? Are we done? Yeah,
Jim Deschays. Did you make a J.R. Richard reference when J.R. Richie was pitching? Did I miss it? I feel like that would have been JD's job at the time, but then is it too obvious and then you don't want to do it? Did you guys hear any? Because I didn't. I was kind of surprised.
I oh, I thought you said he did. No, I didn't know. I thought you were saying did he do it? Yes he did.
No.
Because he used to broadcast in Houston and Correcto. Correcto. Yeah, maybe Yeah. Yeah, maybe. I thought
that that was like an automatic. I was thinking it. I I assumed that J D was thinking it, but I just didn't know.
I love when you think like Jim Chase.
It doesn't happen often. Number two
boomer. On a scale of one to ten on the confidence meter trademark, where would you rate your level of belief that the White Sox will end up winning the AL Central?
Oh no. I don't wanna tell you.
Say it. This is not a not the time not to say it. Mm-hmm. This is not the time not to talk. That's in the Irishman. Say it.
Say it.
I'm at like a three. I I I don't their schedule is gonna help them out, but after what happened in Cleveland this series, I'm just very worried. Very worried.
Okay. I am not gonna push back on that, although
They found a way they found new ways to lose in the series against the the Guardians.
