[Ding Dong Johnson]

Well that was awesome.

[Butterscup1679666578]

uggh. dont suck cotts

 

I dont think it matters at this point, we are gonna get reamed

 

I still wanna see Cotts come out and pitch well.

[Andy]

Aand the umps decide to wave the 'phantom tag' principle for the Cubs. Thanks.

 

Although that was a dumb play by DeRosa.

Every middle infielder does that you stupid ump.

[98navigator]

Ronny has made the mistake of coming off the bag before.

[RichHillIsABeast]

BS. That's called an out all the time.

Very true. He should have gone to first.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Ronny has made the mistake of coming off the bag before.

 

That's not on Ronny. He took his foot off the bag to save his leg.

[CubmanPi]

Does that get scored as a FC and E?

[OleMissCub]

That's just a pathetic call by that ump.

[Andy]

I'm fairly sure it's just a FC, as if he got out.

[CubmanPi]

An out!!!!

 

They scored that as a throwing error on Derosa.

I agree that the throw probably shouldn't have come in but there are other ways to defend the runner coming in. He clearly took his foot off the base too early.

E4

[RichHillIsABeast]

Cotts isn't missing by much.

E4

 

The guy who was batting reached on a FC. The runner going to second got there on an E4.

[E.J.]

Nice job by Cotts to get out of it with minimal damage. He's pitched fairly decent so far this year (minus spring training of course).

[RichHillIsABeast]

Nice job, Cotts.

Good thing the Lakers game is coming on now so I don't have to watch this crap much longer.

But that's done all the time. How many knee injuries would middle infielders have if they didn't allow the phantom tag?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Someone needs to walk up to Capuano and kneecap him with a bat so we stop going 0-2 every bloody at bat.

win so the mavs clinch the #1 seed.

[Butterscup1679666578]

even though it ended in an out that was a nice AB by cedeno.

For Bulls fans, Detroit beat Cleveland today. A Bulls win in Toronto tonight puts us one game up in the race for the 2 seed, plus the tiebreaker, with four games to go.
