5/8 Pirates (Snell) @ Cubs (Lilly) 7:05 WCIU/720

[98navigator]

I'm really PO'd right now. Not sure at whom, but I'm just PO'd about this.

 

Walks kill

[bukie]

Our bullpen really blows.

 

They have a 3.26 ERA, good for 7th in the majors right now. I wouldn't say it's bad.

[DiamondMind]

I'm just checking in on the game guys...

 

Hope the Cubs can pull this one out, looks to be a back and forth game.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Who's up, Izturis?

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

ok so when does jason marquis pinch hit cuz we ran through our bench...which includes pie playin a half inning as a defensive replacement

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Izturis walk off homer

[rynefan]

Yep, payin' through the nose for having second and third and not scoring. That's just embarrassing.

[Balsa]

Ok, well we can win in a walk-off.

 

I hate it when teams score a run on us with ONE HIT. Thanks for the walk Dempster.

[soccer10k]

Today seems like a great day for a walk off.

[Brian]

I sure hope Izturis doesn't really lead off here, especially with derosa available.

[Rob]

Our bullpen really blows.

 

Have you checked their stats?

 

Game threads aren't for rational thought.

 

Although to be fair, despite our inherited runners streak and generally strong numbers, we're way down the list in WXRL for a reason. We give up runs in bad opportunities.

[Flames24Rulz]

Our bullpen really blows.

 

Have you checked their stats?

 

Yeah and they all put a ton of runners on base. They get inherited runners out, but that streak is eventually going to come to an end.

 

Wuertz is the only worthwhile guy in our pen.

[A New Era]

Time for bonus baseball at Wrigley.

 

I don't want it, even if it's free!

[Bull]

man, o man, o man.

 

I love Ronny

[CubmanPi]

Izturis walk off homer

Hilarious.

[E.J.]

I blame Jacque Jones for not having the ability to hit lefties at all.

[C.C.]

I'm really PO'd right now. Not sure at whom, but I'm just PO'd about this.

 

Walks kill

 

So does RISP with less then two outs.

[Derwood]

ok, please don't go to extras. i'm falling asleep here

[rickrolled]

we better win this game

[Soul]

Our bullpen really blows.

 

Have you checked their stats?

 

Yes, but regardless, it always seems like they struggle.

[Balsa]

Izturis walk off homer

I'd change my avatar to Izturis.

The streak ended last game, Demp besides today has been really good.

Pardon my stupidity, but what's WXRL?

[bukie]

The lack of scoring with a runner on 3rd and nobody out really bit them that time.

[Bixby]

I sure hope Izturis doesn't really lead off here, especially with derosa available.

 

Then who hits for Dempster? Marquis?
