6/10 Cubs (Lilly) @ Braves (Carlyle) 7:05 ESPN

[CDBears1259]

So ATL doesn't get called on the carpet for their bush league play and they get the absolute biggest strike zones. Cool, sounds fair. :roll:

[Outshined_One]

Someone needs to be sacrificed for the greater good tonight and go absolutely bonkers when the benches next clear.

 

I nominate Henry Blanco.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm really guessing Lilly said something to the ump that got him kicked out. He wasn't thrown out just for the pitch.

[killthegoat06]

awful strike zone.

 

 

i will say, im impressed jon and joe are on our side with this.

 

Who woulda thunk it?

[otis89]

i am completely serious when i say that i would put z in the game to pinch run and have him run directly at edgar after he steals on the first pitch....then he can proceed to beat the piss out of him.

 

He should also have a bat with him. I don't know how to pull that off, but it needs to happen.

 

He could hide one in his pants.

[killthegoat06]

Well, Lilly had a good outing. Struck out 67% of the batters he faced.

[CubinNY]

Marmol has to drill Edgar next AB.

 

Drill

[Brian]

LOVE THE SHRINKING AND EXPANDING STRIKE ZONE!!

[Irrelevant Dude]

Curveball right down the middle, ball 2.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I'm prediciting a Barrett roll slide into Renteria.

[otis89]

At least Marmol's bringing the heat tonight.

[killthegoat06]

Marmol has to drill Edgar next AB.

 

Drill

 

And further screw the bullpen? Not gonna happen.

[Coach C]

Struck him out.

[E.J.]

Someone needs to be sacrificed for the greater good tonight and go absolutely bonkers when the benches next clear.

 

I nominate Henry Blanco.

 

I nominate Izturis. It won't hurt the team if he's gone, and it would be hilarious watching him go nuts.

[C.C.]

Fontenot should have punched his ass out!

 

I would've inflict some kind a of pain. I kick or a punch. I couldn't contain myself!

"BRAVES....I want your blood...and I want it right now...."

If Marmol does well, any chance he gets into the rotation? He's been pitching amazingly.

[jaydee]

it would be really therapeutic to see alomar hocking a loogy in that chubby umps face. anyone have a youtube of that?

[abuck1220]

i hope randy wolf breaks his arm in his next start.

[CDBears1259]

Marmol has to drill Edgar or the ump next AB.

 

Drill

 

Fixed

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I'm really guessing Lilly said something to the ump that got him kicked out. He wasn't thrown out just for the pitch.

 

I don't think so. Lilly pretty much maintained his puppy dog face that he always has the whole time, and none of the camera shots seemed to show him saying anything.

I promise you that Barrett says something to Renterrhea when he comes up next.

[otis89]

The hick with bases, Lou needs to pick up Renteria and toss him.

[MPC]

i'm completely serious...how is renteria still in the game? if not for walking out towards to the mound...then the ridiculous slide into 2nd.

 

i'm baffled.

 

i'm gonna watch the sopranos at 8, but i want to see what else happens in this game.

[Irrelevant Dude]

If Marmol does well, any chance he gets into the rotation? He's been pitching amazingly.

Whose place would he take? We have a pretty solid 5 starters right now, so it would take an injury for Marmol to have a chance to break into the rotation.
