Howry singled to left field

 

bwahahahaha.

[sweetpeteman]

Howry for leadoff.

[Mark Priors Calves]

There's 10 guys in the bullpen and none of them besides Howry can pitch the 8th? Dusty got lucky with that hit, he loves the double switch, why can't he use it so his relievers don't have to hit.

St. Louis is coming back. Milwaukee up 6-5.

 

Okay so St. Louis has batted around this inning. However, they only have one hit in the inning. Thus far 5 walks in this inning alone.

 

Now 2 hits in the inning. Spezio doubles and Cards take lead 8-6.

CUBS are 22-3 when they lead after 8 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[sweetpeteman]

way to come back from being down 3-0, Bob.

[Jim Ignatowski]

In a devastating rebuff to the Dusty Baker theory that walks are bad because the runners clog the basepaths, the Cardinals draw FIVE walks in the fourth inning, all five of whom score as the Cards rally from an 0-6 defict to take the lead 8-6. Six Cardinals have walked and all six scored. Clearly Dusty needs to go to St. Louise as their batters are in sore need of his teaching.

[KaiserCesar]

Any predictions on Dempster's command after a week off?

 

I'm going to say leadoff walk but then he settles in.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Mercker in to pitch for Cincinnati

[sweetpeteman]

Kearns is injured?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Murton singled to left field

[Fred Hornkohl]

Womack sacrificed, 5-3, Murton to second

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 11-11 when they execute a sac bunt.... 12-25 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre grounded out to first, unassisted, Murton to third

[YearofDaCubs]

Pierre grounded out to first, unassisted, Murton to third

Pierre has done nothing to deserve still playing on this team.
