6/4 Cubs (Maddux) @ Cards (Marquis) 1:15 CT on WGN

There goes our little K machine King again. Wish he would have done that more in the 2003 NLCS

 

He never seems to get on base, but he doesn't K much. Before today he had 20 Ks in 228 ABs.

 

I guess I've been trained to single out his K's because he supposedly never K's. He does have a higher rate then he did during the rest of his career.

 

yeah, that is what is scary.

[UMFan83]

This doesnt feel like a tying HR ab....and its not

[da bears]

Ahhhhhhhhh just missed it CRAP.

[Fro]

aram would have hit that out if he would have been taking HGH :(

[cubfan1955]

ARAm is going to tie it up.

 

Or not. :wink:

 

That was our big chance.

[soccer10k]

And the chances for a sweep are gone.

[Sarcastic]

Taking two of three from the Cardinals in St Louis isn't bad, but it isn't good enough. We'll still be 11 games below .500 and 12.5 out. It's especially bad since they actually scored some runs today.

Yeah, it's not.

 

Anyone know our record vs the central?

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

I think this game is pivotal for the Cards. This either one of those.... we won and we have the fortitude to play well even though Pujols is out.

 

OR

 

We lost and we are going to falter without Albert.

 

 

Of course leave it to the Cubs to give confidence to the Cardinals.

Nice work carlos!

[soccer10k]

Marmol looked very good. Is he just a reliever or has he started games in the minors as well?

That's not even bad. Too bad the west really screwed us.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Be patient with Izzy.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

The home plate umpire has been awful today.

[soccer10k]

He's a starter.

 

Can he start for Rusch the next time his spot in the rotation comes up?

[Shilzzz]

jacque walk

[da bears]

Alright let's make things interesting again for Izzy.

[Flames24Rulz]

Leadoff walk. Interesting.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Good job Jones....listen to those boos in STL. I thought they don't boo their players?
