What I think Craig should do, here's what I think. If this keeps going on, let's say they lose again today. Let's say they get swept by the Pirates. Here is what I think Craig Council should do. He should demand that all – Well, laps, push-ups. Everybody runs laps. Burpees. We're bringing in Tyson Bajan.

Let's go, guys. Burpees. One-mile burpee bra jump. Hour and seven minutes. Let's go. Is that a mile? Burpee, bra job. Burpee, bra job. One mile.

59.689 - 65.276 Mark Grote

Wait, can it be his dad? And he's just like making them do callous things.

65.436 - 77.331 Unknown

It's Mr. Bajent and Tyson are here to whip the Cubs into shape. Mr. Bajent. And there is Daddy Bajent, the arm wrestling king. He's an electric cat. I love this idea.

77.351 - 82.958 Mark Grote

Guys, we brought in a new coach. We're going to arm wrestle all your asses. First of all, I've

ever done this before no perfect i'll take over from here i can actually keep this if you don't mind that's what we're gonna do like a bad episode of a saved by the bell type of sitcom Listen, the rest of these people, they've been calling me Travis. You can call me Daddy. Yes, sir. Michael Bush coming up to the plate is just exhausted and sweating from all the burpees.

It's not even his fault. Some aggregator is going to get a hold of this, and we are going to have some hell to pay.

113.618 - 121.927 Marshall Harris

I'm just trying to get a good pitch to hit and drive a baseball. Left it a little over the middle of the plate. I was too busy grinding my absolute face off.

You okay, kid?

0

134.134 - 138.722 Mark Grote

Man, between that and Abner Rebay's triple chop, I don't know what's going on today.

0

138.763 - 143.932 Unknown

It's going on. The burpees didn't work? Now what?

144.413 - 145.515 Mark Grote

You know, I will say this.

Chapter 6: How are the White Sox performing compared to the Cubs?

145.875 - 149.342 Mark Grote

Calisthenics are underrated. You can get in shape doing those.

0

149.462 - 151.606 Unknown

Oh, big time. Burpees are for real.

0

151.706 - 163.365 Mark Grote

Yeah. Burpees and a broad jump, that's a... For Tyson, it's a more broad jump than it is for me. I'll say that. I don't have the ups like that. I can box jump okay, but that's about it.

Chapter 7: What are the standout moments from the White Sox's recent game?

163.666 - 164.988 Unknown

The burpees are good for everything.

0

165.308 - 165.809 Mark Grote

They are.

165.829 - 171.538 Unknown

Cardio, building some muscle, some core. It's kind of a perfect exercise, actually.

171.678 - 182.115 Mark Grote

Welcome to Burpee Talk. This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score. And the sad part is, even that probably feels better than this stupid 10-game losing streak.

0

182.618 - 186.204 Unknown

It reached 10. Double digits. This is a significant day.

Chapter 8: What does the future hold for the Cubs and White Sox this season?

186.465 - 202.652 Unknown

10 straight losses. That negates, by the way, in my brain. I was talking about this last night. I was out. I said this negates one of the 10-game winning streaks. You still have one that is left, but this takes it away. It has neutralized one of the two 10-game winning streaks.

202.7 - 225.637 Mark Grote

I mean, that's it. Congratulations. The money in the bank has run dry. And you're right. That's kind of how we have to look at it. Now, the last team to do something like this, have the 10-game win streak, the 10-game losing streak, was the 2017 Dodgers who, yada, yada, yada, maybe if the Astros hadn't banged on some trash cans, won a World Series. You know, another one.

0

225.677 - 228.785 Unknown

They won the pennant that year, the Dodgers did, and they lost to the Cheatin' Astros.

0

228.945 - 240.975 Mark Grote

Was a great World Series, but the point is that doesn't really help us in this state of things right now. The other part is, unfortunately, Mark, you and I did the thing that I think all of us do.

240.955 - 266.218 Mark Grote

When we're trying to find answers to why a team is struggling, whether it's asking for your backup quarterback at times or asking for a different left tackle candidate or it's asking for perhaps a different guy to come off of the bench, you know, maybe your sixth man should start at a various position. We ask, what of Jordan Wicks? And in the first inning, he let you know.

266.258 - 292.479 Mark Grote

Unfortunately, Jordan Hicks had to wear that one. Five runs allowed to the Pirates in the bottom of the first inning. Welcome back to the big leagues. Now, he did settle down after that. And I give him credit because I feel like as much as we, Mark, had been waiting to see him, He had probably been waiting for this moment to get back to get another opportunity tenfold, twentyfold, hundredfold.

293.482 - 300.561 Mark Grote

But unfortunately, when things are bad, it just felt like at that point it was going from bad to worse.

301.047 - 328.492 Unknown

He walked the first batter on four pitches. Here I am, kind of excited to see a first-round pick who has just been lost, whether through injury or ineffectiveness. The Cubs scraping the bottom of the... We need you, kid. We need you. First batter, four straight pitches. He walks. They get men on. Then you get the Brian Reynolds two-run double to left, and the whole thing is on.

328.953 - 348.117 Unknown

The Valdez home run comes on a 2-2 count with two outs. You're on the verge of getting out of it, and that could change the entire complexion of the game. Ten straight losses, and they give up five. They lost the game in the first inning last night. There was no sign of life from the Chicago Cubs.
