Game 212 - Chicago Cubs at Chicago Whitesox

August 14 at US Cellular Field in Chicago, IL
WGN

My first time this season listening to Ken Harrelson. It's always a pleasure, and by 'pleasure' I mean 'the worst part of my day'.

Harrelson's the ultimate homer. He's such a homer you can sometimes hear him keeping his being a homer in check just slightly, then a few seconds later he goes right back to yelling for a rally to continue.

Some Ken Harrelsons from Friday's game, a 6-5 Cubs win.

"Good guys"
(Cubs hit) "Uh oh"
"Don't stop now boys!"
"And we lead it 2-1"
"Atta boy, Gio!"
"There's a strike, didn't get it"
"That pitch was not a strike, called a strike, full count"
"Alright boys, we got to get some wood work going"
 "Ramirez, Sanchez and Soto for us here in our half of the second inning"
"Get in the hole!"
"4-4-0 for them, 2-2-0 for us"
"Come on Adam, pick him up"
"5-7-0 for us, 4-5-0 for them"
"Carlos 2-for-2, picks up our fifth hit"
"And the Sox lead it 5-4, mercy!"
"No activity in our bullpen"
"Atta boy, Tyler"
"We need some runs, boys"
"And you can put it on the board, yes!"
"He gone" (said eight times)


Harrelson also said "you can chuck and duck" and I don't know what that means.
