4/26 Marlins (Olsen) @ Cubs (Guzman) 1:20 PM WGN TV

[BeerHere]

Cub pitchers have handed out twice as many walks as the team has hits. Edited April 26, 2006 by BeerHere

[KatJ]

How is this an ugly game? I am encouraged by the offensive production today. 5 runs on 4 hits. With the lack of a strong lineup I like that we maufactured the runs

 

7 runs by the Marlins cashed in on 6 walks issued by Cub pitching.

hits

 

I thought clutch hits didn't exist

[Coach C]

JoBo to pitch now.

[KatJ]

Pie needs to come up and Jones needs to go on the DL with a "sore calf" or something else made up.

 

He could kick the fan after K'ing yet again...

[Mizzou]

Show bunt, then pull away when it's right down the middle. God I hate when Neifi does that.

[Coach C]

I'm still hanging the blame on Williamson (whether they win or not).

 

Agreed. Walking those batters were unacceptable.

[Chris]

And the game is only tied if Dusty doesn't pull Jones.

 

You can't assume everything would have stayed the same. Nevertheless, a terrible decision.

 

Why did he pull him? Anyone know?

 

To quote Tim: "I'm not sure Dusty realizes he can pull the pitcher and not do a double switch."

 

:lol:

[Blueheart05]

JoBo has lost a lot of weight.

Yeah, 7-5. THey only got one in the ninth.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

JoBo has lost a lot of weight.

 

Don't worry -- I found it.

[Banedon]

Pie needs to come up and Jones needs to go on the DL with a "sore calf" or something else made up.

Break a bat over his knee?

[jjgman21]

I suppose if the pen is going to suck, they might as well all suck in one game and hopefully get it out of their system.

 

nice job Roberto.

[ToupeeOnFire]

We lead the league in fake bunts!

[Coach C]

JoBo has lost a lot of weight.

 

And alot of his sweats too.

Come on Neifi!

 

Get a rally started.

 

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

[frostwyrm]

Jobo's not sweaty. That's odd.

[RyCubsFan]

Hard hit ball by Neifi :roll:

[Butterscup1679666578]

Good game.

Perez grounded out to second, 4-3 Edited April 26, 2006 by Fred Hornkohl

*puts on the rally cap*

[Andy]

4-3 - good thing because that play is so few and far between for this team.

[KatJ]

Now that would be funny.

 

I know, I'm a sick and twisted person.

[swordsman]

Oh Henry!

 

Get your butt on base.

 

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

[LoneStarCubFan]

Neifi's really working to get that strikeout.

 

Grounds to second. One out.

 

Why does he even bring a bat to the plate?
