09/19 CUBS (Miller) @ Philadelphia (Moyer) 6:05 CDT, WCIU TV

Let me get this straight, Pierre reaches to lead off the inning.

 

Up comes Theriot, who goes 3-0, before taking the next pitch to go 3-1.

 

Dusty calls for the hit and run and Theriot pops up.

 

Dusty, you won't be missed.

 

I hate the hit and run. I hated the hit and run before Dusty was here. Dusty just exemplifies why I hate the hit and run.

How did sausage end up on the Phillies?

I can't believe Murton got taken out of the game after going 2/4 with a HR.

I see where Aardsma gave up a homer but it was 'unearnded' so his era looks nice. sometimes baseball stats are so silly.

you gotta love the dusty double switch.

I can. he is a stubborn, stubborn man. He's been getting some heat from the media about platooning Murton or not playing him enough so he has to show everybody who's in charge.

I hope Miller keeps this up and does the Cubs a solid and comes back cheap next year.

It was earned.

Yeah I know. This sucks. Atleast there was some reason to watch and some positives. Miller, a possible starter for us next year, seems to be improving. .

[Fred Hornkohl]

Just curious Fred, but are there any states you haven't been to? And this counts states you just drove throught.

 

Never been to Maine.

It could just be because the game was on WCIU. Those are the only games that I can't watch.

 

(Also because nobody did the play-by-play for this game)
