4/9 Cubs (Marshall) vs Deadbirds (Fat Drunk) 7:05 ESPN

[Omar]

Williamson looking sharp. C'mon CUBS OFFENSE!!

[Flames24Rulz]

nice K by Williamson to end the inning. LETS GET A RUN!

[otis89]

Thank you for finally getting a call right. He definitely did go around.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

What a beaut.

 

That's not Ohman. :wink:

 

What are you talking about?

 

8-[

 

Nice. :lol:

[Rob]

Something going on in the stands....?

 

Gammons is blowing on his rape whistle.

[Outshined_One]

Makeup call or the right call?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Uh, Jon, the catcher needs permission from the umpire to appeal.

[Jon]

And the ESPN announcers are STILL talking about the check swing, even though Rolen got picked off.

Yet never even said he clearly didn't go. A good five minutes of saying nothing.

[Coach C]

I hope it's Peter Gammons getting his butt punked if there is a fight going on.

ESPN IS ALWAYS GOING OUT OF THEIR WAY TO PROTECT THE UMP ON THESE GAMES. They knew it was a bad call otherwise they wouldn't have spent the next half inning defending it.

[ToupeeOnFire]

And the ESPN announcers are STILL talking about the check swing, even though Rolen got picked off.

They need to know better. Less check swing talk, more Albert Pujols talk.

Awesome! :lol:

I hope it's Peter Gammons getting his butt punked if there is a fight going on.

[jjgman21]

nice K by Williamson to end the inning. LETS GET A RUN!

 

let's get several.

 

I'd settle for two and three outs from Dempster.

[CubinNY]

Jerome has looked good tonight. So far the bullpen has been as good as advertised.

[Flames24Rulz]

whats going on in the stands?

 

all the fans behind home plate and behind the dugouts turned around and looked way up in the stands. Something was going on.

[Omar]

Someone please start a "Fire Joe Morgan and Jon Miller petition"

 

Already a Buck and McCarver petition.

Anyone know the e-mail address for espn?

 

I'm going to tell them how dumb Joe is.

[ToupeeOnFire]

I thought it was the Cubs blowing the rape whistle.

Wuertz's ABs against Pujols and Rolen aside, agreed.
