Yep. So soriano's failed tag up was the losing run. .

 

Yea, Ryan Dempster completely sucking in the 9th had nothing to do with it. Or Jacque Jones being beyond useless in the 8th.

 

Soriano's failed run STILL was the losing run. So where many other bases loaded and men on third opportunities. But point is, He scores that, we win. Just pointing out that, when you don't take the runs you are given. THIS can happen.

 

He also gunned down the go ahead run at home.

Or the fact that Soriano drove in the third run or threw a guy out at home in extras. This one is all on Soriano, folks.

 

I think you're taking my comment too personal toward Soriano. Jones, Murton, Demp, lots of people sucked. However, he scores that run in the 1st, we wouldn't have even been in extras.

This is a ridiculous argument. I can say the same about Dempster giving up the lead in the 9th. How are you trying to pin the loss on one play when the entire team sucked for most of this game?

If Soriano tags and scores that doesn't mean we would have won. The entire game would have been different. You can't change one thing and have the entire rest of the game play out exactly the same way.

Dempster holds the lead, we wouldn't have been in extras.

 

See how that works?

Exactly.

 

Butterfly effect.

Yeah? You just added another reason. See, I'm not DISAGREEING with it like you are mine.

No, I'm just pointing out when you say stupid stuff.

You stated that Soriano's failed tag up was THE losing run. Sounds like a pretty absolute statement to me.

Well my butterfly effect was that if Sori scored that run, it would have jump started the offense and the cubs would have scored 6 runs in the game. So there! :P

Try not to take me too literally tonite. It was the winning run in a sense that the cubs lost by 1. Not that he was the only one at fault.

And BTW. I didn't say, THE losing run. I said the losing run. See that's what happens when you capitalize words in your head as you're reading. :P Edited by A New Era

JockStrap tonight played one of the worst ballgames I have ever seen a major leaguer play. Pathetic. Please trade this bum ASAP Jim.

"THE losing run" is the same as "the losing run".

You've obviously forgotten who Ronny Cedeno is.

Bottom of the 8th inning was a complete joke.

 

I really don't understand how you don't get at least one run there. Hell, even a groundball to the right side scores a run (unless the infield was in). Still, a flyball to medium depth OF scores one. With a team that loves to try to hit HR's, that should not be a problem.

 

Just terrible clutch hitting as usual (save Sunday).

Cedeno's had his fair share of games, but Jones played absolutely abysmal out there. Probably the worst "performance" we've had from a position player this season.

Yup, With runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs there's no reason you shouldn't get at least one run home.

Sigh. You guys live to argue. I take it all back. Everybody on the team sucks. And I'll try to type every God damn word EXACTLY as I feel, so as to not have my feelings misconstrued.

It's time to trade Jones. How about Jones for Bonderman?

:lol:

 

That would be one solid trade.

Soriano let me down in the 1st.

 

Soriano made a stellar play in extras.

 

Both times the team made stellar plays defensively, they bent over in their half.

 

Jones sucked.

 

Ron Santo probably had a heart attack.

 

Aram looked terrible in that last at bat.
