00:03Great pitching matchup today.

00:05A dead even pick a minus 108 on both sides with a total of six and a half.

00:10It's Shota Iminaga for the Cubs.

00:12It's Pablo Lopez on the other side for the twins.

00:15What do you like at Wrigley?

00:17Is that what it is now?

00:18Like, let me just get this.

00:19And by the way, some outlets are a six even right now.

00:22They say, this doesn't make sense.

00:24And it always goes back to the notion, like, we understand.

00:26Like, you don't have to hit the ball in the air and hit home runs to score runs.

00:29You can have singles and doubles and still do fine.

00:31But there is the wind blowing here consistently at just around 20 miles an hour,

00:36dead in from center field.

00:38And you don't have pitchers that are susceptible to the long ball getting

00:41waylaid out there.

00:42You have two good pitchers on the mound.

00:43But I got to tell you, is this one of those we don't – we usually break this

00:46out for football season, Ben.

00:48Principal plays, a six.

00:50Don't you feel the obligation to take over the six?

00:54I mean, honestly, it's like an NFL game that they go, hey, you know,

00:57it's going to be bad weather, but it's going to be 30-and-a-half points.

01:00You're like, wait a second here.

01:01Sometimes you just have to say, throw this game out.

01:04I understand the weather.

01:05What happens if the wind isn't so bad at game time here?

01:07And you're going to give me a six?

01:08Come on now.
