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

[CaliforniaRaisin]

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

 

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

 

I'm in the midwest and I'm getting Red Sox/NYY crap. Ridiculous.

 

Wow...sad.

 

We always get one of the Cali teams, Padres, Angels, Dodgers, Giants or A's (and once in a rare while, a Cubs game...like the Cubs-Yanks in 03 where Hee Seop got knoced out).

Runners on 1st and 2nd, no outs. Will Dusty bunt?

Ramirez to 3rd, Jones to 2nd on wild pitch

I'd gladly move Barrett to LF if we could get our hands on a great defensive catcher like Molina. :wink:

[Andy]

Ramirez scores, Jones to 3rd on wild pitch

[cheapseats]

Lou Piniella just pointed out that Cubs OBP is last in the NL.

 

The other guy said that OBP is a better stat than batting average.

 

:shock:

[illiniguy]

I'd gladly move Barrett to LF if we could get our hands on a great defensive catcher like Molina. :wink:

[illiniguy]

Please get this run in.
