5/14 Cubs(Marquis) @ Mets(Glavine), 6:10 CT WCIU/ESPN xm 184

[A New Era]

Burrell hit a 2-run HR to give Philly a 2-1 lead.

 

I like this.

[seanimal]

C'mon Marquis. Get your s%$# together.

 

It's 'tear-ee-oh', not 'tar-ee-oh'.

 

He's been doing it the whole game.

 

I know, it's been bothering me the entire time.

[C.C.]

Burrell hit a 2-run HR to give Philly a 2-1 lead.

 

I like this.

 

I'm glad Burrell doesn't only burn us.

[C.C.]

Swung at ball 3.

[CubmanPi]

I'm rather surprised they started to get someone ready in the bullpen already.

Considering how badly his control disappeared and that Lilly went 8 yesterday, I'm not terribly surprised. I really hope Marquis gets deeper into the game though, because Z is going tomorrow.

 

Seems like Lou has used that as an effective motivational tool a couple of times. Could be wrong, but I don't think they would have yanked Marquis there considering how well he's pitched otherwise.

He was getting pretty deep into the counts his last few batters, then he gives up the homerun and spikes a sinker. I don't think Lou would have let him out of the inning if he issued two more free passes before recording an out. I think he was on the brink of a collosal collapse - hopefully he settles down now that he got out of it.

[C.C.]

Don't like how this game has shifted.

[seanimal]

Oh the things that come out Rick Sutcliff's mouth.

 

"This is a situation where Theriot always finds a way to get on base"

 

... groundball to the short stop, out by a mile.

[Outshined_One]

Dusty sporting the stained glass tie.

[Derwood]

i'm surprised that dusty is occasionally saying something interesting

[C.C.]

I'm feeling a ram bomb here.

[Outshined_One]

Wow, Soriano walked.

 

...first time for everything!

 

GET STEVE PHILLIPS OFF MY TV!!!!!!!

[seanimal]

Sori with the walk, I should take a picture.

[Shilzzz]

hardy just homered again

[soccer10k]

Z as a guy I would want to start Game 7? Not a chance.

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

the offense is going to have to really get some more runs i believe

[Derwood]

problem with Soriano in the 3 hole is the neifi/macias-esque performance of the 1/2 hitters tonight

[seanimal]

I bet Ramirez squanders this opportunity.

[texascub]

Now that ESPN has made a news flash about Bergmann's no-hitter, how long until it is broken up?

[Outshined_One]

problem with Soriano in the 3 hole is the neifi/macias-esque performance of the 1/2 hitters tonight

 

Eh, I have more faith in Theriot than them.

 

Izturis...not as much so.

[Derwood]

dammit, brewers up 4-2

[CubmanPi]

I'm feeling a ram bomb here.

WTG Sori! Bring him home Aram.

[Soul]

Do NOT

 

 

 

waste this chance.

[C.C.]

Showing patience...

[Derwood]

Cubs taking walks? WHAAAA?

 

okay, buckle down for the 8 foot wide strikezone

[sweetpeteman]

Ok Murton, get them in.
