Aardsma was VERY impressive.

 

Only one of the eight pitchers we've used today to strike out 2 batters..... and hell, he only faced two batters !!

[UBlink]

Rapata? are they just inviting fans to come in and pitch now? Who are these guys?

 

Rapata, come on down!

after a bad year at AA and a terrible AFL, Aardsma has been filthy this spring.

 

why does his velocity fluxuate so much? it did that in SF and here. :?

[Monco]

Mabry struck out swinging

We'll be seeing alot of that this year.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Pagan almost beat that throw out. If someone bobbles, he has a good chance of reaching. I like speed.

[Guancous]

Williams might not be the gem in the LaTroy trade. It's like how Murton worked out better for the Cubs than Nomar did.

I thought he had an injury a few years ago.He was throwing 97 coming out of college.Then he went down to 92-94.

Leonie doubled down the right field line

Working out better than Nomars not saying much though.

Johnson flied to right field, safe at second on a fielding error, E9, Leonie to third

[Chris]

Ugh, Buck.

[Chris]

Tough catch

[Fred Hornkohl]

Blum flied out (foul) to left field, Leonie scored

[Soul]

GEH!

[BWcubs21]

Well at least we get to see the offense one more time.

[Chris]

Len calling a Hank White walk-off

[Monco]

I hate people sitting behind home plate talking on their cell phones and waving.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Young singled to left field, Johnson to third

[Chris]

Aardsma gives up a single after betting squeezed by blue :x
