3/22 ST Cubs (Maddux) @ Padres (Williams) 8 PM MLBTV & r

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Vinny Castilla singles up the middle.

 

1 down, man on first.

 

Blum in to pinch run.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Greene fouls a couple pitches off to the 1B side going 0-2 and then is called out on a check swing.

 

2 down, Blum on 1st.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Bellhorn goes 0-2, then drives one right at Jones, who makes a falling forward catch. Ain't no Jimmy Edmonds here folks.

 

End of the 7th.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Williamson looked good. Lots of downward movement. I'm not sure about the velocity, but he only gave up the single up the gut, which was by no means smoked. He was consistently ahead in the count, usually 0-2.

[indifferent]

I have to concur with BeerHere regarding these announcers, "Dusty Baker's not the problem (in a screeching voice), Dusty had them 4 outs away from the World Series in 03"!

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Alan Embree (i think) in to pitch for SD.

 

McGahee lines out to RF. 1 down.

Agreed.

 

Yeah, it's Embree.

 

Bellhorn with an error. :(

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Restovich crushes one just past embree and Bellhorn boots it. E4.

 

Restovich at 1st, 1 out. Dopirak up.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

LMAO, Restovich steals second (on Embree).

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Yay Dope! RBI double.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Dope lines an RBI double to left. Boo yeah!

[Brian]

hooray for Dope, I'm calling for him to be the Cubs minor league comeback player of the year.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Pagan (couldn't tell, jerks are interviewing Piazza) singles to right. Dope holds at third.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Ojeda bloop singles to shallow center scoring Dope. Pagan to third.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

6-3 Cubs.

 

Jose Reyes chops one to first scoring Pagan.

I agree.

 

Ugh, Pie HBP. He sounds alright.

[Brian]

PLZ DON'T BE HURT FELIX.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Pie hit in the left hand - stays in and takes his base. 1st and 2nd, 2 out.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Theriot (?) walks on 4 straight fastballs. Embree is really struggling. Bases juiced.

 

9th cubs player this inning up to bat. Chris Walker PHing.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

bloop to LC scores 2. 9-3 Cubs.

[Brian]

hehe it's the Cubs farm system owns Embree inning.

[badger1679666666]

A wonder why the Red Sox fans wanted him gone.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Embree's done for the night.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

hehe it's the Cubs farm system owns Embree inning.
