[anabiono]

anyone else listening to the nationals broadcast!?!?!?

 

why don't they just get down on their knees already for chico...

 

 

good lord

[TruffleShuffle]

i'm not sure why you guys are surprised... the cubs haven't given hill any run support since april. When he starts, the Cubs will hardly score at all. You should be expecting this by now, regardless of who the opposing pitcher is.

[Chocolate Milk]

How in the world was that not a strike?

[TruffleShuffle]

Needs:

-Ace

-Catcher

-Big bat

-Get rid of Jones, Izzy, Eyre

-Bring back Demp, Guz

 

this makes me laugh every time i see it

 

A specific part or the length of it?

 

mostly the fact that the cubs would probably have to take on a large amount of salary and completely gut their minor league system to acquire a #1 pitcher, a big bat and a solid catcher.

That's just misfortune. It really has nothing to do with Rich.

[killthegoat06]

Infield single.

If Hill lets that go, I think Theriot would have had it.

I know you're trying to defend Rich, but he's been pretty mediocre for some time now.

[inari]

Two stupid mistakes in a row by Hill, one fielding the ball, one laying a ball in there 0-2.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Another single. This inning isn't going to end well.

[killthegoat06]

Come on rich...I didn't want to be right when I said you'd get knocked out in the 4th!

How could you say such a thing? Rich Hill is a god among men.

[killthegoat06]

Then he will smite me.

[Coach C]

A doubleplay would be nice now, Cubs.

true, 10th best WHIP among major league starters is just not getting it done

[killthegoat06]

Come on Rich, get out of it!

[98navigator]

fly out

 

2 down

[killthegoat06]

LOL at Dave Otto's Ron Santo impersonation.

[killthegoat06]

3-2 pitch....

[Derwood]

could this game be any more boring? I say no

[98navigator]

Fick out to RF to end the inning.

 

Nice pitching to get out of it Rich!

[Coach C]

Inning over.

[killthegoat06]

Good job Rich!

 

Let's score some runs!!!!!!
