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

[Careless]

I'm almost glad directv decided that no channels over 100 should be broadcast tonight.

But still, it makes me glad I don't have satellite at home

[Wheelimus]

Face it guys, we weren't scoring a run in that game even if the spirit of The Babe took over Neifi's carcas...

[Mizzou]

2 hits in 9 innings against Chan Ho freakin Park? Are you kidding me?

 

And did Dusty Baker seriously start Freddy bleeping Bynum in left field over Matt Murton?

 

Are the Cubs TRYING to make me not want to watch? If so they're doing a good job.

I got home late last night and turned on comcast to see if I could see what the final score was. When I saw it was 0-0 in the 10th inning I couldn't stop laughing. Priceless.

Can someone riddle me why Dempster didn't see the field in this game? In a tie game, every inning after the 8th is basically a save situation, and considering Dempster hasn't pitched in 3 days we probably should've seen him out there.

 

Dude, it wasn't a real save situation. Dusty will only use Dempster in save situations. And when the Cubs are up by 5 or more.

The recap will have to wait until tomorrow. I'm going to go have a drink.

 

7 and 7 time!

 

Maybe straight 7.

 

I prefer absinthe.

Don't knock absinthe until you try it :)

Who's knocking it. I love the stuff.

he said basically a save situation which technically is correct since one run for the hoem team wins it

Raisin was being sarcastic.

This will make someone on the board happy:

Cubs.com[/url]"]The reason for his resurgence? Zambrano has found a better, higher arm slot. He sat down with Rothschild and looked at video from a start last July against St. Louis' Chris Carpenter and discovered the difference.

 

"There was a big difference with my body," he said. "My outing against [Milwaukee], I was throwing with my arm only and wasn't using my body. When I'm using my legs and my body, everything's different because I can drive the ball where I want."
