7/5 Other Games

[C.C.]

Oh man! C'mon Pitt!

Go Buccos!

[CubmanPi]

They're saying it's a sprain for Bill Hall. No word on how long he'll be out.

Career-Ending? :wink:

[BleacherBadger]

Awesome news on Hall. put him on the DL.

Most likely. Either that or he just won't be much good against Washington this weekend.

[CubmanPi]

ADAM LAROCHE!!! Solo shot, 6-3 Piratres. His double just missed being a HR, and he has 3 taters in his last 6 AB

[Bruno7481]

Laroche is on fire. He could be a load this weekend.

[BleacherBadger]

WOOO

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Hopefullly, LaRoche will be all out of homeruns by the time we play them this weekend.

[CubmanPi]

Hopefullly, LaRoche will be all out of homeruns by the time we play them this weekend.

Seriously. With how solid Pit's D and pitching have been lately, LaRoche heating up makes this weekend look pretty daunting. If Jason Bay comes around, this team will give the entire league some problems.

 

6-3 end of the 7th.

[killthegoat06]

Yeah, I'm worried about Laroche.

[killthegoat06]

3-1 Florida over SD end 6.

[JWCUB]

Hart K's. 1 out.

[Balsa]

LaRoche might finally heat up. Remember, his second half last year was just scalding.

 

Of course, we do miss their best starters in Ian Snell and Tom Gorzelanny.

[CubmanPi]

JJ Hardy singles to right.

[killthegoat06]

Hah! K! Take that Hart!

[killthegoat06]

3 outs to go!

[CubmanPi]

I'm seriously in shock that the Pirates are so close to taking 3 of 4 this week. I also think it says more about the Pirates than it does about the Brewers. Buccos really kicked it into gear this week. I just hope they run out of gas after about 1 more inning.

[CubmanPi]

Turnbow issues leadoff walk to Jason Bay.

[CubColtPacer]

LaRoche might finally heat up. Remember, his second half last year was just scalding.

 

Of course, we do miss their best starters in Ian Snell and Tom Gorzelanny.

 

At least the Cubs have one good thing against LaRoche, the batter-pitcher matchups:

 

Against Marquis-2/14, 1 HR-.143/.143/.357

Against Lilly-2/6, 1 2B, .333/.333/.500

Against Z-1/11, 3 BB, .091/.267/.091

 

So he's been terrible against both pitchers who ha has had more than 10 at-bats against, and he hasn't destroyed Lilly.

[killthegoat06]

Bay walked to lead off the bottom of the 8th.

[CubmanPi]

Bay steals second.

[CubmanPi]

1-hopper back to the pitcher. Batter safe at first, Bay out after a 1-5-6-1 rundown between 2nd and 3rd.

[killthegoat06]

Florida up 3-1 during the stretch.

 

Detroit beat Cleveland 12-3

 

Yankees beat Minnesota 7-6.
