4/17 Cubs (Miller) vs. Fathers (Maddux), 1:20 pm CT, WGN

[inari]

I'd imagine this will be Cotts' last batter regardless of the outcome.

Oh goodness, this is getting too interesting for my tastes.

[killthegoat06]

Is anybody else just ecstatic we aren't getting blown out at this point? When I saw Miller Vs. Maddux I feared the worst.

 

Miller gives up 6 hits and 4 walks and it's tied, you're darn right I'm ecstatic.

 

but, but a 5.40 ERA with a 2.00 WHIP is never acceptable, right GOONY?

 

Correct. It's an unacceptable performance by the pitcher. I'm ecstatic that they were lucky enough to still be in the game.

 

I thought it was a quality start by Miller! He had less then his best and battled!!!!

You can't be serious.

 

 

He didn't have less than his best. That is his best. His best is bad. And he was lucky to get out of there with a performance that works out to a 5.40 ERA and a 2.00 WHIP.

 

EDIT - Thought so. ;)

 

What´s his ERA for the season?

[Fro]

Ruh Roh... the David Arquette jinx is kicking in since they mentioned he was singing the stretch.

[killthegoat06]

[Butterscup1679666578]

Nice job Cotts!

 

Bring in Wuertz!

[inari]

Big time strikeout by Cotts. Time for Wuertz to end this threat.

[98navigator]

Wuertz coming in

[Flames24Rulz]

Big K.

 

Wuertz coming in.

[Outshined_One]

Looks like Lou's calling for the double switch.

[Garwilly]

Barrett and Wuertz in.

[RichHillIsABeast]

There you go!

 

Bring in Wuertzie.

[Derwood]

risky....pulling blanco for barrett. Get Murton's gear out

[Soriano12]

Love this move by Lou. Game on the line and bring in your best reliever.

 

Solid.

[Outshined_One]

So, for those of us just joining the game, how's Pie looked?

At least he can't take Murton out now.

[soccer10k]

Come on Wuertz. Get out of this.

[Brian]

Nice comeback.

 

 

why do I get a feeling last nights, "why didn't lou sub out barrett" discussion will be bumped naw that he contradicted the not taking out the catcher unless injury argument.

[RichHillIsABeast]

So, for those of us just joining the game, how's Pie looked?

 

He has ludicrous speed and patience at the plate.

[VanceJergins]

Wuertz will K Kouz on two pitches.

 

I'm calling a strikeout with one pitch on a bugs bunny change up.
