At least Dusty now has proof of why he should've bunted.

 

What proof? The result of calling the bunt was a guy who got behind early and GIDP. He was wild. If you never call the bunt you could easily have gotten Cedeno into a hitter's count and the result would be completely different.

1st and 2nd with no outs and no runs off of a bush league pitcher. I am SICK of this :x Edited May 11, 2006 by Flames24Rulz

SF announcer is ripping the Cubs for this absurd strategy. Sac bunting down 5 early with your leadoff hitter?

 

 

Morons.

 

I think Dusty wants to get fired.

 

Where do you live goony? I mean, how are you listening to the Giants announcers?

 

 

XM

[Master Shake]

Feh.

 

Fortunately I go home in 40 minutes, and fortunately my radio can only get 99.9 in (due to no antenna)

[Shavo]

I hate this coaching staff and I hate this team.

 

Seriously, there hasn't been a Cub team I have disliked ever. This team I just can't stand.

I said I wasn't going to say anything mean about Pierre during this SF series and it's killing me. At least I can channel on that vitrole towards Busty McBrainless.

[Balsa]

I think only one word defines this game so far.

 

Uggla.

I was being facetious. I know there's 9 million reasons why my statement is dumb, but if you take what happened at face value, as I suspect Dusty will, yoiu'd get the same conclusion I did.

[Master Shake]

Eunuchs can recognize balls better than this team.

Meh, Pierre has been awful, but this is a full on team suckfest.

I'm listening to the game on XM.

[sethuel1]

Way to pull it back together marshall.

 

Maybe he can go 6 innings.

 

LOL Murton walk. Genius move to bat him 8th. :roll:

 

What's your opinion of Marshall bunting here?

 

IT's alright. I almost spit up my diet pepsi when cedeno squared around tho.

 

where's your diet pepsi now?

 

tossed it at the tv after the double play.

put the cap on first?

Ah, that makes sense. So is it Krukow and Kuiper or Jon Miller?

[AllStarMe]

Dusty has made plenty of connections throughout his years in baseball

Here's hoping he can utilize some to find a new job soon.

To paraphrase David Letterman..

 

"If you listen closely, you can hear the Cubs sucking."

[Fred Hornkohl]

Feliz grounded an IF single to shortstop

You're really rolling today!

 

Also, the announcer children make me want to stab myself.

Apparently that doesn't include connecting bat to ball.

It was Miller but switched to somebody else last inning.

[Balsa]

My god. I hate this carnival atmosphere here. That kid needs to sit down and get some speech lessons.

valid point. Baker's managing like they're down by a run. Baker = stubbornass
