royce clayton is older than dirt...not sure why i wanted to say that but i will

[sunnydoo]

Clayton lifetime .243 against us in almost 400 abs

[Andy]

Can't see Clayton come up without remembering Dan St. Paul's imitation of the Giants' PA announcer...

 

"The batter....number 10....Royce...Clay-ton..........has been changed!"

[Fred Hornkohl]

Clayton walked, Zimmerman to second

[Balsa]

CMON BLUE

I just got home from work and was going to watch the game but since I live in Iowa City I guess I do not get it but I can watch the Iowa Cubs play on channel 22. Maybe they got tired of airing the Cubs getting beat and wanted to change it up by letting people watch the Iowa Cubs get beat for a change?

[CubinNY]

It's a conspiracy! The umpires hate Z.

[Flames24Rulz]

whew, that was too close.

[Balsa]

Iffy balls and strikes by the ump. Two of those balls looked like strikes.

[Fred Hornkohl]

[Drew Doughty]

I understand the philosophy of having your pitcher bat 9th and all...but why not have Hernandez bat ahead of Clayton?

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

hopefully the devil dogs sweep the white Sox

[Jon]

Z needs to start picking up that 2-out pitch count efficiency.

[Drew Doughty]

Philly is on top of the Brewers, bottom of the first in Milwaukee.

[Drew Doughty]

And as I flip back to my other browser...1-1 between the brewers & phils

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barrett doubled off the wall in right center field
