Watching Tyler Chatwood walk the tight-rope when he pitches isn’t really the most soothing experience as a Cubs fan, but at least you don’t have to try and block any of his wild pitches. Trying to get in front of a breaking pitch is one thing, but Willson Contreras blocking a 97mph fastball spiked a couple feet in front of home plate and taking it directly off his balls looks as painful as it sounds.
I mean, direct shot.
