Cubs' Ugliest Inning of 2024? | Breakdown

Did we just witness the worst defensive inning of the year for the Cubs? Justin Steele probably thinks so, and maybe that's exactly what they needed.

[@TheLearningCatalystCoach]

​@@bza069not in this situation, sorry you're wrong. Frelic was already hesitating as a means to try and get back to 2nd hoping Nico would throw it soon. Nico at full speed likely tags him, as the video presenter already noted.

Team needs to hire a theatre vocal coach for PCA so he can get some projection in his voice and let these jabronies know to get out of the way so he can make a catch.

[@TheLearningCatalystCoach]

Especially if they aren't going to hustle and give 100%. I've been really disappointed in Nico this year, and this inning alone exemplified his season. Not sure who he hired or trusted to train him this off-season, but they should be fired and he should be ashamed. Dansby is a close second on the defensive decline this year.

[@BigLar56321]

@@TheLearningCatalystCoach Agree. Many balls missed by Dansby this year.

[@rogerdodger723]

@@TheLearningCatalystCoach After the ball dropped between the three, Dansby just stood there with his hands on his knees. Then he points to third to have PCA throw there, meanwhile a brewer runner is rounding second and could have been picked off if Swanson wasn't taking a breather. It is like he has no high gear.

I dont know if it wakes them up but he was justified to be upset.I watched it as it happened and believe me, i was thinking the same thing especially after that blown run down. Its upsetting that noone seems to care. I love Steele and he should have been the winning pitcher. Why in the world does Counsell have neris pitching in the 9th????????? Its almost like he wants to give the game away. Porter Hodge looks good and i love Keegan. Hope he comes back soon. The injuries to the relief corp doesnt end.😢

[@Playsinvain]

Why isn’t he on the bag at third? Weird

[@mezenman]

Not how I taught rundowns. Get the ball out of the glove so the other fielder can see the ball. Create a throwing lane.The issue with that rundown is the play was at 3rd. They needed to throw to 3rd earlier and then run the runner back towards 2nd. Worse case the runner is safe and runners are on 1st and 2nd.

[@vipercoil630]

You hit it on the head. 100% agree. Rundown 101. Show the ball, make sure there is a throwing lane between defensive players, other defenders back up ASAP, get the ball to the furthest base sooner than later and prioritize running the baserunner back to original base, peel off and return to back up after each throw.

[@GetOuttaTheJohnBoy]

First of all, NO TEAM can sustain 'winning ways' playing like amateurs as the Cubs have all season long, and the runner wasn't just safe, he was safe STANDING UP! My first move is to fire the Manager. This team has no concept of winning, or playing fundamentally sound baseball and THAT"S exactly what has lost them the most games this year. The unforced errors(regardless of how they're scored), consistently throwing the ball away or even into the stands. Leading the universe in hitting into dbl plays and LOB. This team is an embarrassment to the word 'professional'.

Dansby Heyward is quickly becoming my least favorite Cub.

I predicted a bench clearing brawl during this series. Maybe that was all that's going to happen but it's way past time someone went off and showed some emotion.

[@mikegibbons2889]

Good explanation, but the other thing to consider is, you should always try to be running the runner back to the lesser base, so if he does get back safely he isnt getting an extra base.

[@stevenlapidus5939]

You got to feel bad for Counsel having to deal with this crap. He had an easy job in Milwaukee, low pressure, with an organization that can build success. He called the "Cubs" job a dream job. How is your dream going Counsel? Thanks for all the amazing memories you gave us in Milwaukee. 2018 NLCS series, and taking the Dodgers to game 7. So close to the World Series. Now the continued memories of watching the Cubs stinking up the joint. The Cubs seldom are able to build success year after year. If he wanted out of Milwaukee so badly, he might have been better off going to the Cardinals, they are at least a winning organization.

[@cambium0]

on that popup, given where it eventually ended up, *swanson* probably should have called for it. On the botched run-down, I'm sure they all know what they messed up better than I do. But jeez it's a bit distressing to see all these more or less good players playing like there's no point in trying. While I totally back Steele, one of the few people who actually has bankable talent here, it sucks that he had to do that. Manager should be doing it, fans should be doing it, front office, but not teammate on teammate. Morel's lack of effort ... sit him. Two games at least. And it's amazing that Little and Neris together did not give up any runs. Statistically it had to happen sometime. Crazy that Counsell put them both in but what choice does he really have. Anyway, they know what it's like to do their job properly ... hope it rubs in.

Don't get too cocky. I am and have been a Brewers fan my entire life, but just because we won a couple of series doesn't mean that we're now the National League Champions. Yeah beating a division rival is great. And yes I remember when the Cubs were kicking our @$$e$, Miller Park would have more Cubs fans than Brewers fans. But there's still another 75-80 games left and the Cardinals, Pirates, Reds, and Cubs could still make a run. This has been an insane season. The Brewers lost their closer(Josh Hader), a Cy-Young winning pitcher (Corbin Burnes), a number of other players, and a manager that fans used to love. Add to that a insane number of injuries the Brewers have still been winning. However just remember winning streaks can also become losing streaks, and that SUCKS!

[@myronlarimer1943]

No…. Steele has to be thinking I am pitching on a little league team. Professionals that cannot even execute defensive fundamentals. Nico has to come off the bag for that throw on the stolen base and Swanson has to be there to back it up. Morel should have stayed covering 3rd as Nico ran him towards 3rd waiting for a throw on the rundown to put on a tag - Morel was totally out of position. Communication was non existent on that pop up to shallow center. The passed ball was due to sheer laziness. The Cubs are just mailing it in at this point. The few exceptions are the starting pitchers, Happ and Busch.

[@bryanshields5571]

It was so refreshing to see an actual player call out the horrendous play/lack of passion seen from this team lately since our highest paid in history manager doesn't want to or highly paid Dansby "don't panic it's only June" Swanson won't.

Also, the rundown was lost by the catcher. As soon as Sal saw third empty, he knew he could turn on the afterburners and beat the toss. Having the catcher on third, he would have been hung up doing physics calculations and probability and stuff. Catcher took the leash off and Frelick bolted.

Steele was right to show some frustration. Cubs did their best imitation of this year’s White Sox that inning.

[@reelcrazy1812]

I agree that this inning seemed slow and sluggish…im a brewers fan so it makes it easy to say. Some of these plays seem more or less due to the lack of communication or practice in certain areas of the game. Ex. In the rundown it looks like they just are slightly uncomfortable in the scenario, the left fielder has to come in towards third, because Nido has to stay at the plate in case of a potential play at home. Is this partly on Counsell and the coaching staff? I think yes.

[@bza069]

plus NICO screwed the run down up by failing to throw the ball earlier... shouldve thrown to Morel way sooner.

[@Commenter007]

The bat boy is putting in way more effort than the Cub players! Great job, young man! When the Cubs get back to Wrigley, I hope there's not a single fan that shows up! Why should they, the players and the manager sure as hell aren't showing up?!

[@matthewwilkyway3395]

I said this from the beginning. Before they signed Belli, they had Wisdom and Morel as “big bats.” They went into the season without a true ace, Steele should be a 2 and Imanaga 3 Assad, Wicks, Brown for the rest of the SP line. Expecting Alzolay to close all year was unrealistic with his injury prone history. They are a “Yu Darvish (ace) and a Chapman (closer) away really and they need a big time bat at 3rd base

[@adamstuhlman2206]

I love what Justin did!

[@tonybordonaro7381]

Thank you Justin!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@EdsterIII]

I may be a Brewers fan, but I know and understand the Cubs fans frustration. The ironic part, when the season ended last year I was not thrilled with the Brewers front office moves. Then when Craig Counsell left, it really seemed like our team was going flat. We traded a Cy-Young winning pitcher, we dumped off one of the best closing pitchers in the middle of a pennant race? WTH!?!?! Our managerial choice was a little puzzling as well. Then the new season started, and I honestly thought the Brewers wouldn't even win 60-65 games all year. With Craig Counsell I again honestly figured the Cubs would win the division. I mean no disrespect at all. These two teams have had one of the best rivalries in Baseball. Usually with the Cubs overtaking Miller Park, oops, American Family Field. My point is that anything can happen. Sometimes your team makes decisions that can p*ss you off to no end. It might take time. Hell, the Brewers have still only seen one World Series(1982), and we lost. I don't know what happened to Counsell? Maybe he was more lucky than good?

[@SuperDudson]

"In a rundown, you run at the fielder." I think you meant to say you should run at the runner.

[@brianjohnson3782]

This game was Saturday, Sunday they had a worse inning giving up 7 runs.

[@EdsterIII]

Again no disrespect intended at all, but what happened this season? I really thought Counsell would be a great fit in Chicago. One thing I noticed when he(Counsell) was in Milwaukee was that our team batting average was low, something extremely low. Little to no run support either. Pitching was usually at the top or close to the top but hitting sucked. Again I really thought Counsell would have worked?

[@bryanolivermusic9011]

If Nico backs off when PCA calls that, PCA catches that ball. Nico simply wasn't listening. You can tell in the footage that when Pete begins his slide to catch the ball, he sees Nico in his peripherals and instinctually leans away to try to dodge getting smacked in the face which pulls him just that fraction of an inch from the ball. And Swanson shouldn't have been there at all, his presence only added further confusion and he was never catching that ball. He needed to be paying attention, seeing that two teammates are both going for the ball, and getting out of there to let them communicate the play to each other. It is getting really really frustrating watching Swanson lazily saunter around the field game after game not hustling, not communicating and not playing good fundamental baseball. If these players aren't going to hustle and earn their MILLIONS of dollars, someone needs to get traded or sent down as an example.

[@bza069]

YES !!! Finally someone gets that PCA (centerfielder) was the captain of the outfield and has right to call for every ball as needed. Nico went after it and either ignored PCA or didnt hear him...either way, Nico, needs to be aware of other players out there especially center fielder... Nico definitely caused PCA to miss that catch and almost caused a nasty collision out there

[@SetupManCubs]

The problem is that he called for it very late. And as the infielder, you are taught to keep going until you get called off. They both could have done better in that situation
