No good Murton, clogging the bases with two out.

Hey, remember when Mike Piazza was a good baseball player?

 

Hey, man.... I remember when air was clean and sex was dirty !! :wink:

 

You must not have been to Golden Colorado lately.

 

Help me.... I don't get the connection.

Sorry drifted off there. Clean air.

 

Golden doesn't have clean air . . . or clean water.

 

I thought the Coors commercials always pushed this fact. What did the mormons have to do with it?

 

Clean air, sex = dirty always reminds me of mormons.

they do - its a lie. the coors water source passes through 40 miles of superfund sites on its way to Golden. Golden isn't in the mountains as they imply - its on the west edge of denver where smog gets pinned against the mountains.

Marshall has only allowed 17 hits in 33.3 innings... that's pretty sick. It's nice to have a guy on the team who is a pleasant surprise, as opposed to an abject disappointment.

[fallingpieces]

It must be because of the big families. I guess I won't be buying Coors anymore.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton stole second base

[Rob]

Son of a...

 

Why does Len keep mentioning it?

 

Everybody email him at once!

[Fred Hornkohl]

5 stolen bases in a game is a season high for the CUBS

[Shavo]

I thought Barret sucked behind the plate! :lol:

[ToupeeOnFire]

Todd Packer steals second.

 

Excuse me, Matt Murton.

The Cub runners should have to run backwards when trying to steal. You know, just to make it fair.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barrett walked

Would the runs still count?

they could steal second, steal first, then steal second again

[fallingpieces]

Has anyone hit a home run, and run the bases backwards? If so what was the outcome?

[TruffleShuffle]

Are there any players in the big leagues who can't steal a base on Piazza? He can't hit any more, so I'm not exactly sure what the Padres are getting out of him being behind the plate.

[Shavo]

OMG HAIRSTON RULES

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jimmy Piersall did that once..... back around '63 give or take.

That's the reason it's outlawed. I know people have done it before, but I just can't be bothered to get up and grab my reference books, sorry.

[Banedon]

Hairston isn't good.

[fallingpieces]

Has anyone hit a home run, and run the bases backwards? If so what was the outcome?

 

Jimmy Piersall did that once..... back around '63 gived or take.

 

Did the run count, or did they make him run the right way?

[CubinNY]

I don't think Dusty likes Hairston's plate approach. Maybe that's why he has him bunt all the time.
