GDP would be nice here.

Wow! Womack isn't too bad... Today. Seems like everyone can get a hit today.

 

To be fair, I'll take Womack playing for Neifi any day (even though that isn't the case today).

 

Womack's career OBP: .317.

Neifi: .299.

 

Neifi plays better defense. Pick your poison.

 

Hopefully, the Cubs will start both so there's no need to choose.

 

We can just alternate them every game, so we have a Savior on the field at all times.

Anyone else have the feeling that if we hadn't won the game in the 9th, we'd lose it in extras?

 

I am hoping they show some creativity in losing today.

 

What giving up 8 homeruns, and hitting none isn't creative enough?

[Outshined_One]

LaRoche walked, A Jones to second

 

Que? He's still AB.

It's a nice effort, but it's not up to the allowing-two-runs-to-score-on-a-sac-fly level yet.

[IowaCubsFan]

This tie game is a most disturbing development.

Sorry..... spaced out

Almost! Nice play!

[Outshined_One]

Apparently into an alternate future.

:shock:

 

LaRoche walking takes some hard work.

[Butterscup1679666578]

maybe into the 12th inning or so

This is just going to give Dusty an excuse to play them more. ](*,) ](*,)

Howry creeps me out when he's on the field. Dude looks like Robert Patrick from T2.

Let's score a run!! Edited May 28, 2006 by Omar

Terrible throw, but nice recovery from Walker.

Yeah, but that guy has got to have a wicked slider.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Interesting DP!

 

Womack+Neifi = Best DP combo in the history of the game.

They just said no fan could get to Bonds HR.............. that's kind of funny. Maybe the Giants can sell it on eBay themselves now.

[Outshined_One]

Interesting DP!

It's the best of both worlds, dude.
