[CDBears1259]

Lou REALLY disappointed me in this.

[Coach C]

End of 2nd.

 

Come on Cobs, get some freakin runs, and plow somebody, just for giggles.

[bhogg]

lou needs to grow a pair in that situation and protect his pitcher.

 

if not then, he should've raised hell after that slide into second base.

 

they'd suspend him for the rest of the year.

[squally1313]

Best. Game Thread. Ever.

yeah, i'm a little disappointed in lou right there.

[killthegoat06]

That last microphone segment just elevated my anger at the situation by an order of 10. You thought he intentionally threw at his head? Honestly, someone send Wolf to AA, does he have options?

 

Agreed. I am so mad right now.

[Outshined_One]

can barrett start a fight with the ump?

 

Now that would make my week.

[otis89]

That exchange with the umpire is ridiculous.

 

What's that umps name? I wanna send crap mail to his house...and by crap mail, I mean an envelope that I crap into.

 

Jim Wolf.

[jaydee]

i have heard people with concussions use better reasoning than this ump. he better get fined and suspended.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Jim Wolf is now officially the worst umpire in baseball.

[Sarcastic]

Lou REALLY disappointed me in this.

 

There was nothing he could do but throw a fit, and that wasn't going to help anybody. It is already evident to everyone watching that the umps were grossly out of line, Piniella would have been tossed in no time.

[soccer10k]

IF YOU WERE WAITING FOR IT, WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN BOTH TEAMS BEFORE THE GAME?!?

 

Yup. That moran really botched that one. There's no reason to not warn the teams if you think something is going to happen. That's the whole point of the warning.

Me too. I can't believe no one did anything after that slide into second. I would have blown my top.

[imb]

Barret needs to "get his signals" crossed on a 95 mph fastball if you know what I mean.

 

I want Wolf to take one right in the adams apple

[Brian]

This ump is also going to face zero accountablity. He should be suspended at the least. He took the game into his own hands.

 

I say Gallagher comes in for one pitch into Renteria's ribs sometime tonight.

extremely disappointed. noway should he allow that crap without going off

[otis89]

Well, it's a start. From the Wikipedia entry for him.

 

He resides in Ahwatukee, Arizona.

Does anyone live close enough to there to go look up his address in a phone book or something?

[Magnetic Curses]

in a situation like today, i start a long reliever who throws really hard, like marmol and tell him to aim high. after he gets tossed, bring in lilly. a manager might get a few game suspension, but it would be worth it.

[E.J.]

Lou REALLY disappointed me in this.

 

What's Lou going to do? Complain and get another 3 game suspension from MLB. I'm glad MLB has made the umpires God.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Going to public records search to find the ump's home address...be back shortly.

No no no no, let Eyre do it.

[killthegoat06]

They're still going to be talking about this in the 9th inning.

[OleMissCub]

"GET A ROPE!!!"

Who cares if he was suspended again? He needed to show the ump up regardless.

I like this man's thinking!
