GOOD TIMES, YAY!

[Mizzou]

Way to go Rich, you idiot.

[Twiggy]

going to be a long long day

[weis21]

For God sakes Rich get something below waist level.

We're lucky they're fouling off some of these pitches and not driving them. Estrada's sac fly was over the heart of the plate, waist high.

 

It would be nice if he could work through one of these and have a decent day.

 

better luck next time

[TruffleShuffle]

how the hell does that crap get out?

[RyCubsFan]

Game over.

 

You realize the Cubs have scored over 5 runs each of the last 3 games...and we're facing a rookie pitcher?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

At least now, I can go ahead and bet busy with the things I needed to do but put off because of this game being on.

[Keener98]

Hill is laying a big time egg here today.

 

not really

 

Yes really

[illiniguy]

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

[swordsman]

Alright, get Mench and let's start chipping away.

 

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

[RyCubsFan]

Alright, get Mench and let's start chipping away.

 

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

LET'S GO CUBS!!!

 

I like the optimism.

[Chocolate Milk]

Way to bring your A game today, Rich.

hahaha, what?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Game over.

 

You realize the Cubs have scored over 5 runs each of the last 3 games...and we're facing a rookie pitcher?

 

I also realize the Brewers will probably torch us considering that Hill will not last three innings with the number of pitches he's thrown.

A really good rookie pitcher

[TruffleShuffle]

cliff floyd would move faster in a motorized wheelchair

 

walk on a postage stamp strike zone, ground ball single, HBP on a batter that didn't try to move, bloop single... what a bunch of crap

 

The excuses you make for Hill are hilarious man, please keep it up. Let me guess it was somebody elses fault Rich gave up a HR too

 

I'll take him over anyone else in this rotation.

[Sammy Sofa]

HOORAY BEER!

mmmhmmm

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

40 pitches for Hill.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

Typical Cubs. 1st inning of the first game and the series and season is over.[/quote

 

WOW....

[hawkeyecub]

HBP on a batter that didn't try to move

 

The ball came right at his back and was coming at about 62 mph tops. There's no reason he should move.

 

except for the umpire isn't supposed to award a batter the base if he makes no effort to avoid the pitch.

 

What are you talking about? He turned away from the pitch and it hit him square in the back. To avoid it he would have had to have jumped on the plate.

[da bears]

i cant say im really surprised by this. the first time in a while im actually somewhat excited about this team, this happens. not surprising.

[E.J.]

It's amazing how quickly the Cubs can rip your heart out. :x

[TruffleShuffle]

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

 

well considering he's been a better pitcher this year...

[weis21]

eyre, yes
