New Strategy: When opposing pitcher is shutting you out, THROW AT HIM

 

Ya know up until the rules change in like 1904, you could still bean the baserunner and have it counted as an out.

[Shilzzz]

Kasper and Brenly have spent all of 2005, and 2006 saying "This team has yet to play their best baseball" and it continues. Have they realized, they just won't???

 

or maybe they'll realize that this IS their best baseball

[Lockes Eye Scar]

the Cobs best baseball was against the Pirates and Nationals at the beginning of May... good as it's going to get

That's what ruined us.

Uggla flied out to deep left center field , Boone scored

Ahh....getting swept by the freaking Marlins, AT Wrigley. Feels great.

We're rapidly approaching the point where rooting for losses is more beneficial than rooting for wins.

[Guest]

Over/under on number of pitches it takes Messenger to finish out this game?

Looking like we'll be 2-7 in the last two years against the Marlins.

 

Money sure buys wins :lol:
