08/19 St. Louis (Suppan) @ CUBS (Zambrano) 12:20 CDT, FOX TV

[Jim Ignatowski]

OK, screw the living hell out of Gameday. It said Miles was out, then he ends up having singled. Then it says Pujols was out with no runs scored, and that flips to a sac fly.

 

Nice to see it only took the Cardinals 6 pitches to score a run.

 

If you're in a spot where you can have the sound of the radio playing, you really should listen to the radio over the Internet. If you need to know where to find it, I can get you the link. It is so much more enjoyable, at least to me.

 

I thought all radio internet feeds were blacked out permanently so you would be forced to buy mlb audio.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Wow, he got out of it with only 1 run given up....

[UMFan83]

Once again, Z comes up with something so rediculously nasty, we forgive him for looking like a fool all inning.

[Andy]

Belliard - strikes out swinging

 

1 run, 3 hits, 0 errors

 

Zambrano pitch count - 22

 

Due up for Cubs:

 

Pierre

Perez

Murton

[Sammy Sofa]

OK, that was far from pretty, but Carlos got out of that mess with only 22 pitches, 1 run and a strikeout. Not too horrible.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Wow! Z just smacked himself in the head. Sort of like football player minus the helmet.

Typically, the main feed for the team (for this one, the one out of Chicago) is blacked out, but the stations that don't necessarily play every game are not usually blacked out.

[Andy]

Pierre - singled to shallow left center field

[Sammy Sofa]

I keep waiting for Gameday to reverse Neifi's "Called Strike" with "Jacked one out of the park."

[Andy]

Perez - popped out to second base

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Lou Piniella praising Murton.

 

 

"Good hitter and good speed."

 

Ugh......"working with Gene Clines about pulling the ball and it is working".

[Andy]

Pierre steals second base, advances to third on throwing error E2

[Sammy Sofa]

Yeah! Way to leg it out, Slap!

[Andy]

Murton grounds out to first base, 3 unassisted, Pierre holding third

[Yeti]

why on earth does fox think that someone in NC would want to watch red sox/ yankees?

I've been asking the same damn thing in DC.

 

The blackout rule is asinine.

It's up against the Cubs/Cardinals and the West Coast game. Yankees and Red Sox is the closest game unfortunately, and also the biggest national interest game (same with me-I'm in TN right now). I don't like it, but it is the correct decision for them.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Big surprise....runner on 3rd with only 1 out and the Cobs can't get him home.

I understand why they picked it...I just loathe the blackout policy that goes with it.

[Andy]

i really wouldnt give a crap if i could watch on MLB EI like i usually do and pay a hefty sum for, but noooooooooo

[CaliforniaRaisin]

They think everyone wants to see that crap. I'm shocked that the folks in the Midwest are actually getting the Cubs-Cards.

[Andy]

Molina - homers to left field

Exactly. We pay the big bucks to get everything...we should get everything, no excuses!

[InconspicuousZ28]

Wow, Lou Pieniella is a terrible color analyst.
