That ball was about an inch from hitting the plate and Pierre swung.

 

Nice catch by Dunn.

[David]

1 inning down, roughly 1,457 more to go!

 

Don't forget the playoffs.

[Jehrico]

Zone appears to be loosening up.

 

Yeah, cuz we're up...

[bc2k]

Could anyone have imagined Alou or Dubois with that ball?

 

Thank you, Matt!

 

Holly would have had it.

Thank you, Matt!

 

Holly would have had it.

 

I think not.

Thank you, Matt!

 

Holly would have had it.

 

Yeah, but Holly's a gamer. You've got to expect it of him.

Harand looks like he settled down a bit. Let's hope for a quick 1,2,3 from Big-Z.

[Jehrico]

That ball was about an inch from hitting the plate and Pierre swung.

 

Nice catch by Dunn.

 

He was down in the count 1-2...can't necessarily blame him for taking the protective swing.

[Andy]

1-2-3 inning. Oh well.

 

Let's go, Z! Better inning this time around!

[UBlink]

I can't remember...am I going to be this worthless at work EVERY TIME the Cubs play or is it just opening day? :D

 

From time to time you'll work during a dull game, but that's about it.

 

That's why we use screen names.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Fred, MLB.com shows 5-1. What's up?

Fred is slacking. :lol:

[WrigleyinEngland]

For those not watching , this umps zone is all over the place not consistant at all. Walk strikes out and i think others will too if they aren't sure of the zone.

[Mizzou]

Nice play, JP!

[Rob]

Damn... nice catch.

[David]

You take protective swings on close pitches... not ones that are about to bounce off the plate...

These guys are flashing the leather! Nice catch Pierre. Edited April 3, 2006 by Blueheart05

[ToupeeOnFire]

I hate Javier Valentin.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

Pierre!!!

[moorecg]

Umm...Z...could you not get rocked.

 

 

Thank you.

[WrigleyinEngland]

Wow JP Wow , that was scary, not pretty just plain scary...........

[Jehrico]

Valentin hits one to deep center, Pierre makes a nice catch as he collides with the wall.

[Rob]

Much better
