Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Nady grounded out to third, 5-3

[CubColtPacer]

So..who do people think is going to be the pinch-hitter in the 9th?

Well, I'll quote my own post here..I think we'll see Jones batting 2nd this inning.

Jones, pinch hitting for Cedeno, grounded an IF single to second base

[CubColtPacer]

Nice start Jones. Come on guys!

[FloridaCubbie]

hahaha

[cheapseats]

Calling for Coats to bunt = stupid, for at least two reasons.

[cjbucks]

We are going to bunt ourselves to prosperity :roll:

[Fred Hornkohl]

Coats bunted into a FC, 1-6, Jones out at second

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pierre flied out to center field

[cheapseats]

The coup de grace: Mabry pinch hits for Theriot. Will it work? Not likely.

I can't believe this move

[Butterscup1679666578]

Mabry for Theriot. Great job Dusty, you bum.

[YearofDaCubs]

This team is so damn pathetic, I just can't believe it.

[cheapseats]

I can't believe this move

 

If Mabry should pinch hit for anyone (and he shouldn't), it should be Pierre, who has trouble getting the ball out of the infield.

Good strategy - Theriot's opps in September is only 1.112.
