No damage. Sounds like Z is settling down a bit.

Did Ronny just pull an Alex Gonzalez?

56 pitches through four for Z. Looking good.

I hate having innings handicapped by an automatic out.

 

:(

[rawaction]

Shake it off Ronny, get it back with the bat. Only 1 pitch after the inning should have been over. Good job Zambrano.

[Fred Hornkohl]

56 pitches through four for Z. Looking good.

 

helluva lot better than Monday, no?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones struck out swinging

There are starts Z has where he gives up no runs and a couple hits through four innings but he has 70 or 80 pitches so there's no chance he can go past 6 innings.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton grounded out to third, 5-3

[Guancous]

Jones struck out swinging

 

Was that the last at-bat, this one, or his next one?

[Outshined_One]

Jones struck out swinging

 

In other news, the sun rose in the east this morning.

[badger1679666666]

He's really not even close to making contact. He missed that by 5 inches.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones struck out swinging

Yes. :wink:

I know nobody cares, but felt the need to share. Mrs. Blink is gone for the weekend so I get to enjoy a Cubs game the way I did back in the old days when I was in graduate school and she was at work. I got a quarter chicken (dark) from the local equivalent of Harold's Chicken Shack, a quart of Busch (Stroh's not available locally) and turned on the Cubs.

 

Hope the results are different than they ususally were back in the old days!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cedeno doubled down the left field line

[Rusch33]

Nice hit, Ronny.

[soccer10k]

Jones struck out swinging

All of the above.
