Walking Lee to get to Cliff Floyd who already has hit a ball pretty dang hard tonight? Okay, sure.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

And the bunt takes the bat out of Lee's hands. :evil:

[Coach C]

I hate sac bunts in the beginning of the game. Make absolutely no sense.

 

With a good bunt, it prevents a DP, and it provides Lee a chance to drive them in (Since they're IBB'ing him now) or Floyd in this case.

 

The game can get 3-0 in a hurry.

But they have to play small ball!

[cjbucks]

It's a good move. The last thing the Cubs need is a GIDP.

 

OOOPPPs I guess we are back in a dp situation - didn't see that coming.

[Coach C]

Come on Clifford....

[98navigator]

Uncle Cliffy comes through with a 2 RBI single. :D

[Coach C]

I'm aware of that, yeah, but at least it's better to have bases loaded with one out than runner on 3rd with 2 outs.

[Allroy]

Make em pay Cliff. Just an easy single here is fine.

No, bunting is the right move just about never. Never.

 

3-0!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Yea! Clifford!

Exactly. You knew there were going to load the bases to set up the DP. Stupid move by Lou.

 

Works out though. :lol:

exactly. and puts cliffy in the postion to GDIP

[Outshined_One]

That or Zambrano running through a stop sign and creating a play at the plate.

 

Believe me, I wouldn't put it past him to bowl over a catcher.

See? :D

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Floyd with a broken bat single and the Cubs score two more.

 

3-0!

[Coach C]

I take it Aramis have the day off today?

[Coach C]

And how did the Cubs get that 1 run in before Floyd's single?

[Allroy]

I take it Aramis have the day off today?

 

Yep. Dero is playing 3rd.

I once stuck my hand down the garbage disposal to grab a quarter and didn't get my hand chopped up.

[98navigator]

DeRo walks

That's what I was worrying about-Theriot doesn't get that many extra base hits, and if he did single Z had a good chance of getting himself thrown out somewhere on the bases.

[Coach C]

Bases are clogged again....

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

DeRosa walks to load them up.
