5/5 Cubs (Zambrano) @ San Diego (Chan Ho) 9:05 p.m. CSN+

[YearofDaCubs]

Ump completely blew that call.

No, he didn't, Walker didn't have his foot on the plate.

 

Right. He had it on first.

Yeah, ok. You know what I meant. His foot was not on the base.

 

I knew his foot wasn't on the plate. Cubs players don't step on home plate.

Not lately, that's for sure.

Good throw :?

[Flames24Rulz]

my God, Z does not deserve to lose this game.

[cheapseats]

Good throw :?

 

Maybe we should convert Hairston to a pitcher. He does keep the ball down consistently.

[sunnydoo]

Pitching change in Colorado...

 

1st and 3rd one out. 4-4 still in bottom of 9th.

[stitchface]

Z should be done. my bet is dusty throws him back in there.

[YearofDaCubs]

Z should be done. my bet is dusty throws him back in there.

I think Z is coming in only if the Cubs score so I think he might be done for the night.

[cheapseats]

Z should be done. my bet is dusty throws him back in there.

 

I agree. He even said his arm felt a little dead after his last start.

 

It's not like some of our bullpen guys have seen much action lately. Howry and Dempster should pitch.

[Chris]

Nice!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barrett singled to center field

[Flames24Rulz]

a hit!

[cheapseats]

Prediction: Jones homers down the right field line.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones grounded out to second, 4-3, Barrett to second

[BigSlick]

Dave Roberts is so good.

 

I just want you to know that I officially benched Chris Shelton, who is now, in my book, a 3 week wonder.

 

In other news, SCORE A FRIGGIN' RUN.

[Shavo]

Ugh Hairsuck and Perout are coming up.

[cheapseats]

Prediction: Jones homers down the right field line.

 

Oh well. At least the runner advanced.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hairston flied out to center field, Barret to third

[Rob]

You know, if only we could get 4 outs an inning, we could sac people in every time...

[Chris]

Neifi with the intentional

[cheapseats]

Neifi will get a check swing single here. I can feel it.

[Shavo]

Dave Roberts is so good.

Thats funny.

 

This is where playing Neifi comes back to bite us.

Perez walked (intentionally) :shock: Edited May 6, 2006 by Fred Hornkohl

[YearofDaCubs]

Poor Z won't get the decision.

[Chris]

Good game Z
