6/17 Detroit Tigers (Verlander) @ Cobs (MARMOL!) 4:05 PM CSN

[Jim Ignatowski]

On this day in 1915, Zip Zabel (CUBS) pitch 18.3 innings..... IN RELIEF !!

 

Yeah, but what was his pitch count? :)

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pinch hit for Pierre.

 

Why ?? They guy's gotten on base 13 times in his last 7 games. Who do have that will do any better ??

I was kind of going for the reverse-jinx there, Fred.

 

But seriously, I can't stand the guy.

 

Is it possible that we could sign Andy Pafko to play CF? He'd be an upgrade.

 

Pafko was good !! First game my dad took me to at Wrigley Field, Pafko was playing rf for the Milwaukee Braves. (I'm not old enough to remember Andy with the CUBS).

Pafko was a starter at a golf course in Arlington Heights that my father occasionally golfed at. Not sure if Pafko is still at that golf course.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 1-11 when the opponent triples.... 25-29 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Shelton singled to left center field, Infante scored

[E.J.]

Cubs blow. Put up another game in the loss column.

[A New Era]

Len "Cubs get a break". .. .

 

Um. . . does it 7#<#*% matter?

[Balsa]

Oh wait, WHY am I still watching?

 

Fixed.

 

PS. How embarassing is the fact that there are so many Tigers fans here today? I'm afraid for the Cards/Cubs games later this year...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Inge struck out swinging

[ToupeeOnFire]

Ron Santo says something needs to change.

[Jim Ignatowski]

Well, I've officially shifted from drinking Black and Tans to Irish Car Bombs.

He might a got away with it with Stone. But if he seriously did that, they'd run him out of town. $*#% I just wish they'd run him outta town anyway.

..... ".....it has to happen"

He's been saying it for a while now, too bad Hendry for all the talking he does on the phone hasn't done squat.
