8/1 Ariz (Vargas) @ Cubs (Hill) 7:05pm CT CSN XM 186

[Mark Priors Calves]

nice job, Rich. You've earned your another start.

[oldstyle81]

make it stop, make it stop, make it stop, that was terrible

[Chris]

Did he say "take me out to the pond"?

[Beligol]

CUBS are 36-4 when they lead after 6 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

If the Cubs are 36-4 after 6 innings then how does Dempster have a 1-5 record?

[Brian]

hell, send him out for the 8th.

 

Wouldn't it be funny if ol' One Pitch Rich got the Cubs first complete game :D

[Jon]

I only saw one or two pitches in that inning, but did it look like Hill was putting more effort into his delivery than he was before? It was pretty effortless early on.

 

Good job by Rich. If Jones plays off the wall with a big lead and two outs, he'd have only given up one run. I just hope he can use his curve more next time out.

how in the holy hell did those guys remain on the field for so long before monday took the flag away?

 

 

 

I've always wondered that too. They look like they were having a picnic out there....

[A New Era]

hell, send him out for the 8th.

 

:D nah. .

Take the lead after the 6th and then blow it.

Yeah this is my first time teaching summer term and it is been a very busy 4 weeks so far. Something about cramming a full semester into 5 weeks that makes things feel hectic.

Maybe he will go out and show the rest of the staff how to get 3 outs in under 20 pitches again.
