6/29 Brewers (Gallardo) vs CUBS (Hill), 1:20p, WGN-TV, XM188

[cubweiser03]

too close to take

[Bruno7481]

Pitch looked good to me.

[Mizzou]

What a BS call.

[Andy]

Geez, nice AB Felix. He'd better start working through this, right about now.

[CubmanPi]

Petrick warming in the pen.

 

I hope you got a good look at that, Felix.

[Allroy]

Good job Soriano v2.

[cubbyvirus00]

Pie looks like total garbage.

[TruffleShuffle]

screw you fatty... call the game the same both ways.

[soccer10k]

Good pitch by Gallardo.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

drinking by myself.

 

my family has a history of alcoholism. and i have managed to not become a habitual drinker. but the cubs... this season.....

[Bruno7481]

screw you fatty... call the game the same both ways.

 

He is.

 

None of the 5 runs scored by Milwaukee were a result of his calls.

[CubmanPi]

Good pitch by Gallardo.

I see you woke up in time to wish you were still asleep.

[Allroy]

Its crazy how pumped this thread was before the game. Now its dead.

[Careless]

29 foul balls off rich in the first 2 innings

[CubmanPi]

He is.

Mench was clearly out at the plate in the first inning. Fire Bruce Froemming.

[Bruno7481]

30 foul balls?

[illiniguy]

screw you fatty... call the game the same both ways.

 

He is.

 

None of the 5 runs scored by Milwaukee were a result of his calls.

Yeah, like the walk to Hardy in the first. Or when Fielder just stood in front of a 30mph curveball. But, those two guys didn't score.

[NomarSammy]

screw you fatty... call the game the same both ways.

 

You got that right..........total BS. if he gives Hill that same strike zone in the first--it is probably 0-0. It just happens over and over again with froemming........honestly--what a joke. Hmmmmmmmm, a milwaukee native and always seems to screw the cubs--duhhhhhhh

[cubweiser03]

He is.

But for fun and direct our ire someplace else the non 3rd strike call to hardy is a good place to start.

and to think some people think Rich is more of an all star than Z.

 

he is.

 

were you saying this back in april when zambrano sucked?

Yes, because one month is just that. Z has what, 70 wins in his career more than Hill? Oh and he is younger to boot. At no point in his career will Rich HIll be a better pitcher than Z. Here in about another month this season won't even be close.

 

guess the second half of last year doesn't count either?

Ok, you guys are right. Rich Hill is better than Carlos Zambrano. Lol. So Rich Hill has what kind of numbers for the second half last year plus this year? Compare them with an average Zambrano year. Oh look another walk.

 

hill has been substantially better than zambrano over the last year.

 

and hill's last year has been substantially better than z's career numbers.

 

and z has only had maybe one year that could compete with hill's last year...and in that season, the only thing z has on hill is era (hill beats him in k/9 and whip).

 

 

so in other words, you're completely, completely wrong. so yeah...i guess that's that.

Right, except that Hill hasn't had a whole season at the big league level yet. But, hey that doesn't matter. Oh and he is 28 and having his first big year. And by big year he is a few more starts away from being on par with Z, who is having his worst year ever so far.

 

whatever. your argument got torn to shreds, so you come back w/ something totally unrelated.

 

it's not hill's fault that it's his first full year in the majors. sorry he's been awesome nearly 100% of the time since he's been made a starter. i guess the guy in your sig sucks too b/c he's never been good in the majors.

Mass bipolar disorder.

[E.J.]

I love BB's back-handed way of saying the Cubs are morans. At least someone gets to say it.

Felix Hernandez is 20 years old. He takes dumps with more talent than Rich Hill.

[cubweiser03]

29 foul balls off rich in the first 2 innings

 

well that should make some fans happy today.

at least they get a ball

[TruffleShuffle]

i've honestly never seen this many foul balls in my life
