4/12 Cubs (Maddux) v.s. Reds (Claussen) 1:20 WGNTV and Radio

[da bears]

Man oh man I can't believe that stayed in.

[erik316wttn]

Nice double for Lee.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Oh geez, I so though that was gone.

[Omar]

Since I haven't gotten a chance to watch the game, how did Maddux look? Do the numbers accurately represent how well he pitched?

 

6 IP, 1 ER, 3 hits, 2 BB, 7 SO... his ERA is now 1.46. Good hit by Lee?

[erik316wttn]

That was terrible.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Dusty.....

[C.C.]

I like to get 1 more run to really close this game out!

[Mizzou]

Whoops.

[Omar]

Why, Lee?

[ToupeeOnFire]

WTF?!?

[illiniguy]

Somebody missed a sign.

[Jon]

And there's a mixup.

 

I'd have to believe it was Lee. Why would you pull a hit and run there?

[Sarcastic]

Ack, don't try to steal from second with the wind blowing out and Barrett up to bat...

[C.C.]

Sloppy ball from both teams today.

[CuseCubFan69]

Why in the world would you run then? The Cubs are taking themselves out of this game or letting the Reds hang around because of bad running.

[soccer10k]

On the mlb.com gamecast it says the Reds have made 5 errors today, is this true?

[USSoccer]

Has there been any mention on the broadcast about the severity of Aramis' injury?

 

Before the game there was a recording of some questioning of O'Neil, I think, and he said that Ramirez was day to day, and they'd see how he was when they went to Pittsburgh.

 

So he's likely going to sit tomorrow?

 

I'm less than impressed with his offseason conditioning program. That and Mark O'Neal and the rest of the staff that can't make sure their guys stretch properly.

It's way too early to make any comments on his conditioning program. If he just misses one game with this, it's no big deal. If he misses two and then none the rest of the year, no big deal.

 

Dusty said he thinks he should be able to go tomorrow, but they're not going to take much of a chance and it really just depends on how he feels tomorrow morning.

 

Jon,

 

I love Aramis, he's my favorite player. It's just that yesterday wasn't cold, and I don't see how you could pull something this early in the season in decent weather swinging a bat. I'm just irritated that either he's not in as good of shape as I hoped he'd be, or the training staff isn't stretching guys out like they need to be.

[Omar]

And there's a mixup.

 

I'd have to believe it was Lee. Why would you pull a hit and run there?

 

Barrett's batting. No worries... he'll learn from his mistakes. Thankfully we're leading by 3.

[cheapseats]

speed kills :(

[C.C.]

On the mlb.com gamecast it says the Reds have made 5 errors today, is this true?

 

Yep! The Reds are lucky that the Cubs only scored 4 runs today.

[erik316wttn]

Hi ho, hi ho, it's back to work I go.

 

:(

[CubinNY]

What was that? It looked like Lee got confused or something.

[BeerHere]

Jeez....just get the last 6 outs and get the W already.

 

Ugly game

On the mlb.com gamecast it says the Reds have made 5 errors today, is this true?

 

Yes.

On the mlb.com gamecast it says the Reds have made 5 errors today, is this true?

 

yes, which is approximately how many baserunning errors the Cubs have made. essentially, the Cubs gave all those free outs right back with bad baserunning.
