[E.J.]

WTG Pittsburgh. Come on Cubbies!!!

[Marco4]

Ball game over.

[BleacherBadger]

Great job Pirates. Now, you can go back to your old, losing selves.

[moorecg]

Wheee!

 

Now if we can just win tonight we're calling this series a HUGE success...

[CubmanPi]

I definitely didn't think the Pirates would take even 2 this series, much less 3 in a row. Impressive work. I really hope they're spent, because this team looks like they could do the same to the Cubs.

Barrett just hit an RBI double vs the Marlins.

 

Bowen's still way better. :wink:

I'm getting progressively more bitter about that trade. I was bummed the day I saw it on the headlines, and it's continuously pissing me off with each passing day.

 

I miss Barrett.

 

Yea. I'm really mad at Hendry for basically DFAing him. It's worse because if we DFAd him we'd at least call up soto.

[hawkcub]

Good news the Pirates beat the Brewers 3 out of 4. The bad news we play the pirates next.

[killthegoat06]

PITT WON 3 IN A ROW VS. MIL :shock: :shock:

 

Crap. Marquis, Lilly, and Z better not suck...

I'm hoping it's just the Brewers. They have a horrid record in PNC park, for whatever reason.

 

I trust ours is at least a little better, though I haven't looked it up. Uecker was talking about how terrible it's been for the Crew in PNC yesterday. Looks like they lived up to it. Lose 3/4 to the Pirates, wow.

[RammyFanny]

YES!!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

There's ground to be gained!

From the way things have sounded, it could have been just the Brewers, but the Pirates have been sounding really tough this weekend. I heard Uecker complaining today too, so hopefully you're right and it's just the Brewers honoring tradition and nothing more, but the Cubs seriously had better not be looking past this weekend.

Don't forget we get the backend of the Pirates rotation, and we will even miss Cub killer Zach Duke to the DL this weekend.

We still have to face one lefty. As long as we win at least 2 of 3 and keep pace with the Brewers, I'd love to be 4.5 back at the break.

3-2 Marlins end 8.

[killthegoat06]

Marlins 3

Padres 2

Final

[Derwood]

the Pirates beat Milwaukee 3 out of 4 after we beat them 2 out of 3. Clearly the Brewers are hitting another cold streak.

 

I bet Brewer fans are sweating it out right now. If that team had only gone 15-15 instead of 10-20 during May, they would be up by double digits right now

[CubmanPi]

TB is trailing Boston 13-2 after the THIRD inning. If they don't come back, it will be their 11th loss in a row.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Marmol in to pitch.

[98navigator]

come on D'Backs

[98navigator]

wow, AZ lost the series to the Cardinals. :x

[Bruno7481]

The Cardinals aren't dead yet.

[radarluv1]

i hate the ground rule double.
