6/12 Mariners (Washburn) @ Cubs (Hill) 7:05 CSN

Yay, Dempster pitching. Game over. Putting Dempster in non-save situations or non 9th inning situations = automatic loss

 

it was an auto-loss the minute the cubs loaded the bases with no outs.

Hate to sound like a Piniella basher, but you don't pinch hit Floyd with 1B open. The Mariners had 2 choices.

 

a. pitch to Murton with a RH

b. walk a LH pinch hitter.

 

If you don't like Murton's chances to get a hit, pinch hit Pie. Worst case scenario, they pitch to Pie because he's a rookie and he Ks. Still you get a walk to Theriot and Floyd hits with the bases loaded 1 out. Best case, they walk Pie and he gives you the best chance on the roster to either break up a DP in the middle IF or score on an extra base hit.

CALLED out on strikes? Come on rookie, you can't freaking sit there with the bat on your shoulders in this situation. Idiot.

It was on the corner. Just a great pitch more than anything.

And? You don't take pitches on the corner with two strikes against you, especially with the bases loaded in a tie game in the 8th inning.

 

What if the same pitch was just called a ball?

 

You don't swing at balls just so you can strike out and "go down like a man"

I just saw the pitch on Baseball Tonight. You don't take that pitch. Come on, you've seen enough baseball games to know that you have to protect the plate with two strikes, again, especially in that situation.

[Roast]

wher the eff was that ump.

[OleMissCub]

WOOOOT!!!!

[TruffleShuffle]

at least this ump doesn't know what a strike is against their guys too

[SouthSideRyan]

Why Len?? Seriously why?

 

Why is this necessary information??

[Jazz]

wats the heckler sayin now?

[Andy]

wats the heckler sayin now?

"HEY, JOSE!"

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

He gone.

 

Please stop that.

[C.C.]

I still can't believe we've had bases loaded and no body out late in the inning TWICE in the same week and not score? Edited June 13, 2007 by C.C.

Did you see the 3 pitches prior that were called balls in the same spot?
