Marshall Harris 0:02

It's time for 5 On It. Rahimi Harris and Brody bring you five topics on their minds today. On 104.3 The Score.

Mark Grody 0:11

Number one. On a scale of 1 to 10 on the disappointment meter, trademark, where would you rate the Cubs losing to the Tigers 8-6? In 10 innings, all this after Ian Happ tied the game with a two-run homer in the bottom of the eighth.

Vinny Rotino 0:27

Man, it's high for me. It's like seven and a half. And I think it's just because we lost a lot of good men out there. a lot of opportunities to win that ball game Jamison Tyone settled down they decided to use seven relievers who's available today you and me is it you and me out of the bullpen panic with the Cubs kept coming back they kept having enough at bats to be able to win the game then like Ian Happ said I'm all thinking everything's peachy keen over here with the bases loaded against Kenley Jansen when you're up 3-0 in the count no never mind Cutter, cutter, cutter, yada, yada, yada, inning over, and then unfortunately defensive miscues, which are rare for this team.

How did the hosts rate the Cubs' 8-6 loss to the Tigers on the disappointment meter?

Vinny Rotino 1:09

So it was high for me. It was seven and a half. Who's available today in the pen? Seriously. And then as we said, it just sets you up for a tough situation in games two and three because you could have taken game one and now... Peterson goes out there, how many innings is David Peterson going to have to go? That becomes a real question. He better go six. That's it. So see what I mean? Like suddenly you're so close and then you're so far away. But really it was because of all the friends we had lost along the way here.

Marshall Harris 1:39

All right. On a scale of one to ten. I'm going to put it at an even five because it is disappointing, but sometimes you just lose games like this. I mean, no, they don't.

Vinny Rotino 1:51

They have the most walk-offs. I was like, yes. Bottom of the ninth. Let's rock. Dance response is like, I hear you, Layla. Boom. Double.

Marshall Harris 1:59

Boom.

Why do hosts think the Cubs' bullpen and defensive miscues cost them the game?

Marshall Harris 2:00

Double. Yeah. Okay. Here's why it's a five for me. They've won a lot of walk-off games, more than anybody in Major League Baseball. They were at 10 and counting. And when your starting pitcher gives up four runs on the first four hitters, you don't usually win the game.

Vinny Rotino 2:20

No, I mean, that was the other buzzkill. Like, five minutes in, I'm like, wait, I just turned this game on.

Marshall Harris 2:25

And while they fought hard, I don't discount... who the tigers are and how good they are as a baseball team fighting for their playoff lives and both teams played hard both teams played hard somebody had to win it went to extra innings like it is disappointing don't get me wrong but like i've seen a lot more disappointing cubs games this season clunkers yeah you couldn't get a hit with runners in scoring position that wasn't the case here you didn't show any power that wasn't the case here guys have been in these terrible slumps that wasn't the case here it was just the other team played better than you and made one more play than you did and of course the defensive uh miscue by nico horner doesn't happen all the time so just though i don't want to say fluky because it wasn't flukish the detroit earned the win

Marshall Harris 3:13

but both teams did play hard.

Vinny Rotino 3:17

Rasheed Wallace was correct, usually when he said it. Rasheed had a point. You know what else he used to also say? And this kind of speaks to that too. Ball don't lie. And in the 10th inning, sadly, ball did not lie. Ball did not lie. No, it was really, yeah. It's an eight! Up to an eight! number two a lot of truth marshall i need more summer league again how about our guy yaxal oh my goodness mvp yaxal summer league mvp all he's doing is playing the games that he's been told to play he don't care about his ceiling or his floor he's just out here winning all right here's question number two well i'm way too emotionally involved in summer league

Mark Grody 4:00

summer league's the best did i watch the lakers game with surly yes yes i did yep no surprise no surprise summer league's the best what's the worst is we got some injury news about kyle teal again yesterday so that was the bad white socks news but they did win the game so question number two is what was your favorite part of the white socks 10-3 win over the rangers
