Haha this might be like the 5th time all year we can use the bullpen the way it was intended

 

Rusch in the 7th, Novoa in the 8th, and Ryu in the 9th. Book it!

 

I think he meant sitting and watching the game.

 

:oops:

[Monco]

That seventh inning stretch made me smile.

 

The 69 Cubs symbolize the lovable loser mentality.

[frostwyrm]

If Pierre can't steal on Piazza then he doesn't belong in the majors anymore.

[Flames24Rulz]

dang, nice play by Greene gets Walker. Pierre to 3rd.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Walker grounded out to short, 6-3, Pierre to third

[cheapseats]

I'll always love Billy Williams.

 

I have a friend who knows Billy, and he got Billy to sign a custom-made bat as a gift for my newborn son in August.

Another decision by Dusty that probably cost us a run if Pierre steaks, Cedeno moves him to 3rd and he scores on the Walker groundball.

[abuck1220]

and baker single handedly costs the cubs a run. awesome job.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-0 when they lead after 7 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[CubinNY]

i'm pretty sure pierre can steal on piazza 99% of the time. why the HELL do you give up an out to get him to second base right there? baker is awful.

 

Do you really need to ask?

 

After awhile the anger wears into numbness. Right now I am comfortably numb.

[UMFan83]

Wow, we must be winning. One one is upset that the Cubs used Cedeno to sacrifice Pierre over instead of having him run on Piazza.

[stitchface]

dusty symbolizes the loser mentality read quote on abucks posts.

Its #$%&ing inexcusable. I don't care HOW many runs we're up by or WHO's on the mound. What a horrible managing job by Baker. That is just [expletive].

[Flames24Rulz]

Jones with yet another bad throw :x

Yep, me too. I have Dusty fatigue.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Castilla singled to right center field, taking second on a throwing error, E9

[abuck1220]

and people wonder why the cubs have a hard time scoring runs...

The worset manager in the majors.

JACK BAUER to DUSTY BAKER: "WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?"

[Fred Hornkohl]

Gonzalez grounded out to second, 4-3, Castilla to third

[CubinNY]

No, that is something that gets un-noticed in a winning game but is bad baseball none-the-less.

 

People have every right to be upset about it.

 

Just becuase the team is ahead it does not make stupid baseball any more acceptable.

[cubfan1955]

Jones scores a touchdown and then spikes the ball.

[Monco]

nice throw JJ! Ya miss a cut off man and the runner moves up 90 feet.
