08/15 CUBS (Mateo) @ Houston (Clemens): THE BIG MURT!!!!!!!!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lane flied out to center field

[CubColtPacer]

If this goes another inning or two, we'll need a couple out of Novoa..only pitchers behind him are Guzman or Dempster.

Put me in coach...I'm ready to go in!

[Tim Burr]

Things are looking up as Fatso can't win the game now and Dusty still hasn't used Nefi which is the only position player left on the bench. He can still save us in this meaningul game for the playoffs!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Burke doubled to left center field

[Butterscup1679666578]

Good game.

 

God I hate Novoa.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Slow fielding in the OF costs us again.... :roll:

[UMFan83]

Why is Novoa still on this team? He's terrible.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lamb flied out to deep right center field , Burke to third

[E.J.]

Haha. Why is Novoa still on this team?

[Butterscup1679666578]

Novoa is a Dusty Boy. You should all know that by now.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Berkman walked (intentionally)

[UMFan83]

Lamb flied out to deep right center field , Burke to third

 

Ensberg

[Butterscup1679666578]

This is an awful idea. Novoa can't throw strikes.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Cubs are going to get burned by Aubrey Huff.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Bases clogged for Aubrey Huff.
