One down.

[da bears]

Thank you for avoiding the walk Howry.

[Brian]

nice recovery

[otis89]

Schneider can't hit. So, of course, he's going to homer here.

I'm still nervous about this game.

no we'll probably just walk him

[Flames24Rulz]

Pie makes it look so easy.

Whew. Close, but not quite.

not when he's hitting

i'm always nervous until they are shaking hands

[TruffleShuffle]

I'm still nervous about this game.

 

can't imagine why, given our lights-out closer and our stellar record in close games

[rawaction]

Pie makes it look so easy.

 

That's because it is for him.

[Flames24Rulz]

Nice job, Howry.

[otis89]

Nice job, Howry! Please score an extra run or two, Cobs.

if you used to catch balls with a milk carton, you'd think it was really easy wearing a glove too :lol:

Actually Dempster was a very shaky closer last year and far from lights-out. Also our record is one run games is actually 0-6, no where near stellar. In fact you could say its the exact opposite of stellar

This is good. We need to learn how to win these one run games.

I'd kill for a few years ago Mariano Rivera on the Cubs. Lee Smith, Rod Beck, Mitch Williams, Alfonseca, Hawkins, Dempster, Aguilera.....a long list of guys who never made a save easy in a Cubs uniform.

Again.....sarcasm.

I'd rather we have more practice at winning 5 run games, but that's just me :)

Screw that. The Cubs need to score more and put some room between them and the Nats with the wind as it is.
