7/5 Cubs (Marshall) @ Nationals (Bergmann), 6:05 CT, CSN

[CubmanPi]

Hill's BA stands at .160. Will he finish the game above or below that mark?

Below. He'll get a hit, but the game will last 17 innings, and Hill will be 1 for 8.

i'll bet 1000 on below

 

Down to .157.

 

Our production from the catcher's spot is dismal.

But they know how to handle the pitchers.

Young grounded out to second, 4-3

[Soul]

Marshall's curve is marginal early. Hope he continues to get away with it, but I fear he'll eventually get pounded.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Kearns popped out to second base

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lopez doubled to down the left field line

[anabiono]

[Fred Hornkohl]

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 13-19 when the opponent steals a base.... 29-22 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Schneider walked

[gflore34]

Just tuned in, Jones in CF? Pie and Pagan recent struggles notwithstanding there's no concievable reason to play Jones.

He's the only offense we've had.

No, but as long as he's going to take a vacation at the plate Lou figured might as well make it official.

[anabiono]

[Fred Hornkohl]

Izturis grounded out to first, unassisted
