Jones homered to left center field , Barrett scored

It would've been nice to have some of these runs last night.

 

Why? We're out of the race anyway. .

I can't argue with that.

See the Cubs are clicking because they get their infeild set and are starting to gel already. :roll: sorry, I just want that to be true.

Is Arizona's reliever's name really spelled with three d's? There is a conflict in your post, Fred. Edited August 2, 2006 by Sarcastic

[Fred Hornkohl]

This is only the second time all season that the CUBS have hit 4 HRs in a game.

Dusty: "yeah, whatever. . . .NEIFI!!!!"

[Fred Hornkohl]

[Jon]

Curves, please.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jackson flied out to center field

[abuck1220]

the curve to strike out easley was unhittable.

[A New Era]

It's so nice to see rich hill do well. I'm so happy for him. Hopefully this start will go a long way to show him he has what it takes. .

Go Rich Hill!!!!!!!!

 

I love the modern age. Internet in the hotel!!

 

Go modern age!!!!!

 

How's Memphis?

 

We're not there yet.

 

I am in Radke VA at a Holliday Inn.

 

So far the south is fricken hot.

 

ps> sorry for the delay.

 

Go Rich Hill!!!

[texascub]

Well I believe this now qualifies as a quality start for Hill doesn't it?

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 33-22 when the opponent's starter pitches 6-1/3 inning or less.... 10-41 when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Outshined_One]

It's so nice to see rich hill do well. I'm so happy for him. Hopefully this start will go a long way to show him he has what it takes. .

 

Agreed in full!

 

I hope this quiets his doubters. He needed an outing like this.

[ToupeeOnFire]

This is only the second time all season that the CUBS have hit 4 HRs in a game.

 

Last time, Sun 02 July vs white sox (5 Hrs)

How many times have Cub pitchers given up 4 or more home runs?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Perez flied out to center field
