4.5 innings done in an hour. Wow.

[Mizzou]

Score a freaking run. Zambrano is dominating tonight... just get him a run!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Walker grounded out to second, 4-3

[da bears]

Ugh. Cubs can't do anything against Milton. Why can almost every other team?

[sweetpeteman]

4.5 innings done in an hour. Wow.

 

Its easy when Milton only needs 45 pitches to get through 4...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton grounded out to third, 5-3

[ToupeeOnFire]

This is Eric [expletive] Milton for gosh sakes!

[sweetpeteman]

The entire coaching staff needs to be fired just for the poor showing against bad left handed pitchers.

[E.J.]

Another quick, crappy inning for the Cubs' offense.

[da bears]

So does anyone else miss solo home runs the Cubs always used to hit? Certainly not the amount, but they could use some right now.

[mul21]

Anybody have Z's pitch count right now?

[mul21]

Another quick, crappy inning for the Cubs' offense.

 

At least Jones didn't look completely lost against a lefty in that AB.

Anybody have Z's pitch count right now?

Griffey homered to right field
