Opening Day 4-3 Cubs (Zambrano) v. Reds (Harang) 1:10 CT WGN

[C.C.]

Hello Scott, welcome to the Chicago Cubs and enjoyed your 37 pitch first outing on opening day..

 

I thought that was uncalled for. Dusty was calling a good game up to that point. That made no sense...

[soccer10k]

Is that Howry pitching?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Is that Howry pitching?

 

Yup

[BeerHere]

Griffey with a single to start the 8th

 

At least it wasn't a walk

[Chocolate Milk]

This has been a fairly crazy game.

[C.C.]

Not an impressive first day showing for our pen. Let's hope it gets better.

[Lefty]

Why do I feel like we are going to lose 13-12?

I do agree that Baker was calling a pretty good game but you can't leave a relief pitcher on opening day for 37 pitches.

Wow, that was a rocket to Hairston. How he caught that, I do not know.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Because this isn't your first Cubs game.

[Blueheart05]

Nice glovework by Hairston to save a hit and an RBI

[Chris]

Glovely

[sherwood921]

When was the last time we had an opening day game that didn't end up looking like a football score? Oh boy is this game sloppy

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

atta baby, Jerry!

[treebird]

walker would've gotten behind that ball and knocked it down with his chest like the man that he is.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Aside from a few notable exceptions (J. Jones, Lee's gaffe), the defense has been stellar today.

I'm sure the off day was taken into consideration.

I don't often defend the arms in the Cub pen, but it is a significant weather change for them to adapt to. However, there still is little defense for Williamson not throwing strikes while up by 7.

[Derwood]

GAHHH! I just lost my sattelite signal!

Riiight! :lol:

[fishbulb]

damn wild pitch, that could have a been a dp. Giving too many free passes and extra outs.

Am I the only one who thinks Howry doesn't look 6'5" 220 lbs?
