Was that?...It couldn't be...IT WAS!! An RBI by Juan Pierre!!

[ToupeeOnFire]

If the Cubs can hold 'em, Zambrano's record will improve to 8-3. That's pretty amazing considering how crappy this team is.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Anyone know how many walks for the Cubs tonight?

That's how amazing Zambrano is. I think Zambrano does actually a little more run support, although Fred's numbers could be skewed because of the 15-run outburst against the White Sox.

Sucks, since I rely on these game threads to keep up with the games, since our wonderful Des Moines area cable monopoly..err, provider, decided not to obtain Comcast SportsNet. Don't get the AM station that carries the Cubs very well in this house either...

[Laura]

I'm home ... too tired to Greekfest, how sad is that? First game I've watched in a while.

[Laura]

Poor Dempster.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Mike Rivera solo HR off Dempster. Dempster's first batter of the night.

[Laura]

2 down!

 

I can't root against Dempster.

The worst part was listening to that Baker love fest the Comcast announcers were having.

This is sad and pathetic.

 

Only 10 pages for a Zambrano game? And he pitched masterfully, to boot.

 

Its a new low.

Actually the low is 138 on June 23 with Cubs (Marmol) vs Twins (Santana)

I wasn't being literal...

[Andy]

Wow, Carlos is EIGHT and THREE for this team. If he doesn't win a Cy or two in the next few years...

[Drew Doughty]

why are we winning? the plan was to get swept so dusty would be fired. oh well, 3/4 losses should be good enough.

[Scott G. F.]

Cubs win 6 to 2.

 

 

Brewers win 8-2.

 

Zambrano only lasts five innings.

 

 

 

Cubs 7-2. I win tee hee!!!!
