ST 3/27 Cubs (Maddux) vs White Sox (Buerhle) 2 PM Comcast TV

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

The Cubs have to be more patient. Buerhle tries to rush every batter.

 

I was just thinking that.

[KaiserCesar]

TAKE A PITCH.

 

If Grissom makes the team, I won't be surprised, more dissapointed.

[nick23]

Wow, the offense sounds terrible today. A lot of 1 pitch outs.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Seriously, what does he offer this team besides the mythical "veteran presence?" It's certainly not offense or defense...or speed.

[KaiserCesar]

Maddux looking good this spring. If him and Zambrano are on, I think April can be survived as long as Williams and Rusch don't completely blow up.

[nick23]

Another 1 pitch out for Neifi.

[Blueheart05]

Hank is 2 for 2

And there are backup OFers who can offer each of those who could be left off the roster b/c of some allegiance from Dusty to all the 'proven' guys.

[Blueheart05]

Haha! Blanco steals on a missed hit and run.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Blanco is awesome.

[KaiserCesar]

Wow, the pale hose are getting BLANCOWNED.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

maddux looked like he was prancing to 1st.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Pierre leaves Blanco stranded at 3rd. :(

[Chocolate Milk]

What's happening? Work : (

[swordsman]

Hey folks, my coworker has a question. Given Chicago's new smoking laws, is there anyplace in Wrigley that it is ok to smoke?

[Blueheart05]

BOOO! Thome homers.

 

2-1 Sox

 

This is why I would have denied the DH. Thome has both RBI.

that one's on dusty.

[KaiserCesar]

Meh, DH runs don't count.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

haha, thanks for the out. nice bunt.

[KaiserCesar]

what can i say, small ball wins games.

[UBlink]

Meh, ST games don't count.

[Blueheart05]

seeing eye singles!

 

3-1

Don't believe so, no. Some people used to smoke by the bathrooms, but that was about it.

[JonnyRed]

Should I be concerned that right after I turned the game on, Thome went yard?
