What is discussed at the start of this section?
The views and opinions of Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, and Mark Grody should not be taken too seriously. Especially when they give advice. Do not take Marshall's analogies literally. Especially when it comes to Russell Dorsey. The sports thoughts of Rahimi, Harris, and Grody may change at any time. It's just sports. Okay, thanks. Bye. Rahimi, Harris, and Grody. 10 to 2 on 104.3 The Score.
Ian Happ is joining us.
Ian, great weekend in Milwaukee. What a blast of a series. The finale was ridiculous. Your three-run homer on Saturday was fantastic. I want to go to the Mizorowski game, and specifically, and a bat that you had in the sixth inning. He fires the pitch. I think it hits the knob of your bat.
Here's the pitch to Happ, and it is a foul. It hit the knob of the bat. Right near his hands. I thought it might have hit him in the hand, but it hit the bat, the knob. I want to know what that moment felt like when 100 hits the bat.
I think it was 101 or 102.
What were the highlights of Ian Happ's recent performance?
The one that hit your knob? Yeah.
It hit the knob of the bat. It hit the bat, the knob.
Up and in, one of those ones where you're trying to get out of the way of it. I choke up a little bit and definitely with two strokes, so the knob is more exposed, luckily. And so it wasn't my hand. He's good, man. It's really good. It's really good.
I'm sorry, Ian. We are 12 and laughing at the way Grody phrased it. I don't know how you're being a professional about this.
Hit your knob.
Sorry about that. You're on with us every week. I'm sorry you're in on the joke. Whether or not you want to be, you just have to be a part of that moment.
I usually do think in Beavis and Butthead terms, but I really honestly wasn't in that case.
ball you did get your knob hit yeah pure baseball guy and credit to you for the professionalism in this conversation oh my goodness knob they hit the bat the knob the knob is more exposed
Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, Mark Grody. Midday's 10 a.m. to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio 104.3 The Score.
Oh boy, that's how you begin a show in front of Cubs fans and professionals and people who matter at Gallagher Way ahead of a very important game against a really good team for charity. That's how you do it, right? Oh man, oh man.
I was thinking the same thing. We're at this classy place, beautiful day. The people, the townspeople are starting to make their way through. We blast the radio station and they hear lob talk.
I mean, here are these, the entire Salvation Army band here. They're here for a good cause. good people are here and here we are just being ridiculous and inappropriate and it's 10 0 7 in the morning we're also here for a good cause to be fair we are right welcome to rahimi harrison grody on 104.3 the score we are looking for a sweep today it is a very hot day here at gallagher way but we are happy to be with you we uh we're hanging on by a thread in some places because the wind is pretty strong But in the meantime, we are very happy to be here getting you ready for the third game of this Cubs and Padres series, guys. I feel like we're going back to our roots. We've reconstructed our apartment here at Gallagher Way where we set up shop last year for the playoffs.
Here we are with Cubs and Padres yet again. And here we are talking about, once again, a pleasant performance against this Padres team where... It was a little stressful to watch in the beginning with Matt Boyd when I saw that Tatisso run, but as we see, Cubs turned out very victorious. It took every bit of the nine runs they scored to win this ballgame. They needed all of them, but they came out on top yet again, and the offense is really putting together a solid body of work right now.
This is the formula, guys. This is what it's going to take, and it's hard to believe we got over halfway through the season, and the Cubs hadn't even hit four home runs in a game. But in this game, they go yard five times, so obviously a season high. But it was the types of home runs they were hitting that got me excited. When you look at the scrutiny that Alex Bregman in his five-year $175 million contract has been under, and for just the second time all season, he hits a home run with people actually on base.
