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

Ramirez pops out to Granderson in center.

[Jim Ignatowski]

Blanco singled to left center field, Jones to third

 

Just got here from playing golf. Are we playing a double header or just double posting?

 

Anyway, Fred what do you think about Henry Blanco having the highest RBI Percentage of any Cubbie through last night's game? He's at 21.95% (32 runners on; 8 RBI's; less 1 HR).

 

I think an adequate sample size is paramount in any comparison. Sure is a nice start, tho.

 

Just grasping at straws! :lol:

Hey Fred whats Verlander's line? I have him on my fantasy team, just currious. Figured he'd own us today. *sigh*

Well, I don't think they will even win a game against the Tigers or the Indians. They'll be lucky to even get Z a win against the Indians.

That bad call by the ump on Blanco's "hit" saved Verlander from being charged for two more runs.

Marmol definitely settled down and looks good out there.

[Balsa]

Player of the Half-Game: Blanco.

[Derwood]

Glad to see I haven't missed anything. By which I mean, oh, never mind

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones singled to right field

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

The Cubs are hitting. They just can't score. :cry:

[YearofDaCubs]

I seriously hate Baker. Benched Murton yet again.

[cjbucks]

Jones singled to right field

 

Jones would sure look good in a Yankee uni!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Mabry walked, Jones to second

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 21-21 when they draw at least 2 walks.... 5-19 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Good job by Mabry to take the walk.
