4/29 Cubs (Rusch) vs Beermakers (Davis) Round II 1:20 WGN

[Andy]

Pierre creates another infield hit. He hasn't been playing well but I love how the defense loses it whenever he grounds a slow roller.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

that's a balk

[Mizzou]

Cedeno NOT bunting?! :shock:

[Vinestal]

I really hope that Wood is taking Rusch's spot in the rotation when he returns, by the time this game is over Rusch will probably have a era in double digits, why would you replace anyone else? Of course this is the Cubs, so who knows. I wouldnt mind Hill getting 1 or 2 starts till Wood is ready. Rusch is just worse than bad.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cedeno grounded out to second, 4-3, Pierre to second

Small ball give yourself up the right way to play the game yeah;aadsfadsjf

[Mark Priors Calves]

we gave him TWO YEARS and A RAISE

 

It's still mind boggling to me and I didn't think it could've been anymore mind boggling when it happened.

Rusch is useless. He is terrible out of the bullpen and apparently he has found his true form again. He's gotta go. Hendry has to eat that contract and release him.

[Andy]

Yay Slap Nasty!

[Flames24Rulz]

Pierre's 8th SB of the year :)

[Blueheart05]

JP steals 3rd. Let's get a run!

[Mizzou]

Nice! Drive him home, Walker.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre stole third base

[David]

Is that 8 for 8? Has he been caught yet?

[E.J.]

Nice steal by Pierre there. Just need a fly ball now Walk.

Unfortunately because idiot hendry actually thought Rusch was something besides lightning in a bottle. ANYONE with two eyes and a brain could have told you he is bad pitcher who had one good year.

[E.J.]

He's been caught once.

[mhuber92211]

nice time to steal.

 

I think that the crowd is riled up is because of Rusch and becasue the yhaven't heard who the Bears have taken. Once that happens, the crowd will need to start drinking heavily

[Flames24Rulz]

i know he was caught on the game I went to on Wednesday.

[Blueheart05]

He's been caught once.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

yes

 

That seemed like a bad risk considering the situation. Down three, good hitter up, and a left handed hitter at that. Glad he didn't get gunned down.

There is absolutely no reason that Rusch should be in the rotation. Guzman pitched far better than Rusch has so far this year. We could even bring Hill up also. After Wood comes back we should have:

 

Z

Maddog

Wood

Marshall

Guzman/Hill

 

ABR: Anybody But Rusch.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Walker walked

[Jon]

Tie game, please.
