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

[Fro]

Do you bring in Dempster or save him?

 

We have a day off tomorrow... shouldn't be a big deal.

 

Anyway, did anyone thing the crowd reaction/tension in this game/energy makes this feel like a playoff game in April? That reaction to the Granny is reminicent of the crowd when Woody hit a HR in game 7, though obviously not QUITE as raucous.

 

It just feels like a playoff game to me.

 

Same camera shot as the Wood HR, that's probably why.

[Flames24Rulz]

Dempster in for the 9th.

[Yeti]

And there's your run scored w/o a homerun. :lol:

'bout time :wink:

[Outshined_One]

Same camera shot as the Wood HR, that's probably why.

 

That and the fans were throwing all sorts of junk up into the air when both hit their respective HRs.

Just once I'd like to see a 1-2-3 inning after a big scoring output like that. Just once.

That's an excellent point. After Ramirez walked you could tell that even with just a base hit the crowd was going to erupt.

[Rob]

Nice pick!

[Coach C]

Sweet catch by Murton!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

slick

[Omar]

Good play by Murton!

[Chris]

ha ha, MURTON!!!!!!!!

[Flames24Rulz]

webgem by Murton!

[Crash]

Nice play by Murton!

[TrueBlueCubFan]

here's hoping Eyre pitches the 9th since it is not a save situation for Ryan.

Dempster was already warmed up.

[RyCubsFan]

Nice catch Matty!

[CubinNY]

Nice play Big Red.

[Blueheart05]

Murty with the defense! 1 down

[Jon]

Murty!

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

hahaha "put the murton on 'em"

 

awesome sign.

[Vinestal]

lol at Ronnie. "Whoa! Whoa!" on Pagan's speed.

 

What I want to know is how did he react to the Grandslam?

 

He was just literally scraming when Barrett's bat hit the ball. Everybody knew it was gone when it hit it.

I wish I could have heard the call, thats kool. XM has the espn feed =(

[ToupeeOnFire]

Ha, ha...Murton!

 

Even get

[jjgman21]

Taguchi-Luna-Rat Bastard (check yesterday's game thread for my opinion on Skippy) due up.
