Good job by Eyre. We need some more runs.

[Drew Doughty]

Felix Pie had 5 hits today. Should Cubs call him up?

 

to do what, sit on the bench? Dusty won't play him over Pierre. He won't even move Pierre from the leadoff spot!

[Balsa]

Eyre can ride his bicycle all day as long as he keeps getting those Ks.

Not unless they have a cushion with his name on it!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hairston lined out softly to shortstop

[Jon]

Hairston's OPS dips below .530.

 

On a lighter note, Comedy Central is reshowing Jim Gaffigan's Beyond the Pale in 35 minutes.

Walker struck out swinging

[UMFan83]

I was talking about the hot pocket bit with a friend earlier. He's awesome.

Howry coming in?

[UMFan83]

Howry coming in?

 

He's already been in and out. Got the first 2 outs of the 7th

Oh, I didn't realize that. Thanks.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 12-1 when they lead after 7 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Omar]

I hate CSN.

 

Count: 2-0, Out 3

[Outshined_One]

"Komodo vs. Cobra" is on Sci-Fi now.

 

Awesome.

Dempster warming up in the 8th.

Hermida struck out swinging

[ToupeeOnFire]

So let me get this straight. We have yet to reach the Florida half of the 8th and Dusty has basically used every reliever he has available other than Wuertz, Novoa, Rusch and, of course, Dempster. Let's hope Eyre can give them another inning. I don't want to see any of the gascans out there and I doubt Dusty would pitch Dempster beyond the 9th.

Something just doesn't sound right.

Guys in case you are bored with this game, the Chicago Sky are on WTTW-11 playing the Sacrameno Monarchs (*snicker snicker*)

[Flames24Rulz]

And another K for Eyre!
