Murton=willing to take a walk

[Blueheart05]

Matty walks. Come on Jacque.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton walked

[Flames24Rulz]

hey, a baserunner! Murton draws the 4 pitch walk.

[Vinestal]

Muton seems to be the only guy on this team that doesnt swing at crap

[cubfan75]

Nice to see him walk. Perfect game no more.

[CubinNY]

And what do you know. Somebody took some pitches.

 

Who is that Red headed kid?

[anemic offense]

I thought Murton's numbers were better than that. At least he has had good patience this at-bat thus far.

 

He's like 2 for his last 20 + ABs. Not a good way to help the numbers

[Coach C]

Finally, someone walked.

 

And ESPN is so wrong. Murton didn't get traded for Nomar. He was traded along with Nomar.

 

Jeez, ESPN is lacking it's credibility in a hell of a hurry.

[ToupeeOnFire]

2 out walk. Dusty needs to have word with that kid.

[rawaction]

Murton's too patient.

[Jon]

Once again, Sutcliffe has no idea what he's talking about.

What was that in reference to?

It could be applied to many things tonight, but he said that the Cubs were going to sell every single ticket to every single home game for the third straight year. That's definitely not true. He was probably told that they'd draw 3 million fans again and then somehow ended up saying that.

 

Good AB.

[Chris]

2 R HR coming

[Blueheart05]

I thought Murton's numbers were better than that. At least he has had good patience this at-bat thus far.

 

They were early but he's been on a downward spiral lately.

[CubinNY]

Oh but they want him to start, though.

[moorecg]

from the looks of gamecast this guy can't hit the zone...so why aren't all of our guys on base?

[Chris]

2 R HR coming

 

that worked

[badger1679666666]

God our offense is putrid. Why isn't Hairston batting against the Lefty?

[cubfan75]

Stellar at-bat by Jock. Maybe he needs to put some icy-hot into his. Too comfortable swinging at crap.

[anemic offense]

What just happened? I turn away and there is 3 outs

 

Wait don't tell me...Neifi swung at the first pitch.

[Vinestal]

What would we do without Jaque Jones, what a guy... clutch just clutch.

[Mizzou]

Someone piss on Jacque's hands. Please.

[anemic offense]

What would we do without Jaque Jones, what a guy... clutch just clutch.

 

Oh god, I almost forgot he was in the lineup.

[MPrior]

from the looks of gamecast this guy can't hit the zone...so why aren't all of our guys on base?

 

Cause they swing at every durn pitch, that's why! Urgh.
