6.10.13 Reds @ Cubs

[BCubb2003]

The fielders should each take a ball with them and coordinate when to hold it up for the out.

[New York Red]

Seems to be much worse for us at home and the guys in the booth.

[WildcatFan]

This is true but not the entire rule. There has to be a force at third in effect. So, if there runners on first and second or if the bases are loaded the infield fly can be called. I think.

Yep.

[Always Red]

This looks like that MNF game many years ago at Soldier Field.

Bears/ Eagles 1988 playoffs.

Pretty much like tonight- players could see on field level, cameras blocked out by the fog.

[BluegrassRedleg]

I promise you it's nowhere near as bad on the field as it looks on TV.

I remember that Eagles-Bears NFL playoff game one year where you couldn't really see anything at all on TV, but from field level, they had some pictures where you could see moderately well under the layer of fog. Still looks freaky.

I was at this game probably 5 years ago now. You couldn't see anything from up high, but if you were at field level you could see fine.

Granted, not sure how it effects fly balls.

I think there was a wild pitch and now Soriano is up with a man on second, two outs.

[Kc61]

I think Soriano struck out.

[ProfessorTofty]

Soriano strikes out swinging, and the first is over. Reds up 1-0.

[Roy Tucker]

Foghorn Leghorn threw out the first pitch.

Foghat played the national anthem.

[Chip R]

Hey, guys, is it foggy in Chicago? I wish Thom and Chris would tell us if it's foggy there.

[Billy_Bearcat]

I don't understand how they can allow this game to be played. I can't see a thing.

Because the game isn't being played from the press box or CF scoreboard.

[jhiller21]

The center field camera is way out there, filming through a LOT of fog. If you were standing at SS you would be able to see a lot better.

I'm still waiting to see what happens when someone really skies one though, that could be trouble.

[ProfessorTofty]

Hmm, fog looks to have receded a lot for now. Lot more visibility. Paul singles to start the inning.
