4/24 Marlins (Vargas) @ Cubs (Z!) 6:05 PM WCIU/ESPN

[Blueheart05]

It's baseball 101.

 

Young pitchers

Pitchers you haven't seen

Lefties

 

You take a ptich or two unless it is in the kill zone

 

If you have all three of those wrapped up in one player you take a few.

 

What do the Cubs do?

 

Swing at pitch 2, 4, 6, 7, and 9.

 

This is why your "ace" needs to shut them down (especially in the first inning). Now the pressure is on the Cubs...

[Andy]

Vargas no hitter?

After the earlier talk of Z's possible no-no, I'd expect nothing less.

[Stomper90]

Anyone having issues loading the game?

[Flames24Rulz]

Abercrombie grounds out to Cedeno. 1 away.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Abercrombie grounded out to short, 1-6-3

[Coach C]

1 pitch out. That helps alot.

[Outshined_One]

Nice deflection, Z. Ronny handled that quite well, too.

[cubfan75]

1 pitch 1 out by Z in the 2nd.

I am curious, where do you reside down there? I have lived in Naples, Ft. Myers, Ft. Lauderdale as well as Pompano Beach.

 

 

It's going to be one of those nights :(

 

Maybe you should change your screen name to combat the inevitable.

[CubinNY]

Vargas no hitter?

 

Nah, Murton is gonna torch this guy.

 

I agree. He might go 1-1 with 3 BBs and 3 RBI

[Holy Cow]

So lets go over what we've seen in the first 30 minutes of the telecast.

 

1. A 2003 reference

2. A Bartman reference

3. Getting reminded that Willis was drafted by the Cubs

4. Another replay of the Derrek Lee injury play

 

I love ESPN.

 

Plus, they told us that Derrek can't even floss. And they refferenced Niefi's gold glove.

[cubfan75]

I like to mimic what Coach_C says.

Apparently, they think the majority of their viewers are Marlins fans tonight.

 

They should know that Marlins fans only show themselves until the second half of September? And that's only if the team is in the playoff hunt.

I grew up in Melbourne Beach on the east coast, now live in Gainesville and go to the University of Florida. The NCAA champions in basketball. :D

[anemic offense]

Skanks with 5 players making more than the Fish's payroll. Sickening.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Treanor struck out swinging

[Coach C]

I like to mimic what Coach_C says.

 

I know you do. ;)

 

Nice strike out Z.

[Flames24Rulz]

96 MPH fastball for Z to get the K.

[Flames24Rulz]

Vargas with a hit...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Vargas singled to center field

My brother was a Gator, what's your major?

They probably won't show up then either...

 

Meanwhile, Z isn't fooling too many of these guys.

[badger1679666666]

At least Z didn't reach up to grab that barehanded..

[Chris]

Did he just get back from the dentist?

Nice strike out Z.

 

Maybe the comment, great minds think alike is a better fit.
