4/9 Astros (Williams) @ Cubs (Lilly) 1:20CST, WGN/XM 185

CHICAGO (AP) - The DeRosa bandwagon crashed today during the second inning of the Chicago Cubs game versus one of their chief National League Central rivals, the Houston Astros.

 

In the second inning, DeRosa - who quickly grew to fan favorite status after a hot start - grounded into a double-play off of Astros pitcher Woody Williams. This came a day after the second baseman went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts in a loss to Milwaukee.

 

That was fast.

KKK

[Brian]

Woody freaking Williams

 

I hate that guy

 

Houston must have acquired him solely for the purpose of pitching against us. He sucks against anyone else.

 

He's like 3-8 with a 6+ ERA against the Cubs.

Where's Steve McMichael when you need him?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Whoever picked today in the ejection pool has to be pleased with their chances.

Strike 3 to Biggio was below his knees on Gameday.

[oldstyle81]

is it me or has there been a abnormal amount of foul pop ups caught for outs this year.

[Brian]

Lilly has settled down nicely, now he needs some support.

[bcruise]

Love those foul popups (as long as it's the other team).

[Derwood]
