7/6 Cubs (Marquis) @ Pirates (Maholm), 6:05 CT, CSN+

[Sosa21MVP]

Well scoring 2 runs with bases loaded nobody out is like a windfall for the 2007 Cobs.

[Butterscup1679666578]

i would be fine making it 7-5 here

[Roast]

God, just roll the order over so friggin bowen doesnt lead off the 9th.

 

 

Damnit.

[Sosa21MVP]

Ahhh Pagan just missed a hit.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Crap! Why couldn't that drop?

[Sammy Sofa]

Pagan can't do anything right tonight.

[Derwood]

gah, i was hoping he'd hose that one in RF

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

We're going to lose this one. Fontenot's error is now looming huge.

[Butterscup1679666578]

sigh. Hopefully we see Theriot-Floyd-Ward in the bottom of the 9th.

unpossible.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 0-19 when they trail by 3 runs or more at the end of 8 innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammy Sofa]

That's kindasortamyabe 6 runs Pagan has not pulled through on tonight.

 

If I use crazy logic.

[Derwood]

the hope is that matt capps is no sort of real closer

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wuertz in to pitch for the CUBS

[Shyam]

At least we stopped doing the bases loaded - no outs - no runs scored thing.

[Fred Hornkohl]

McLouth doubled (ground rule) to left field

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Pagan is worthless.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Come on Wuertz, quick 1-2-3

[Sammy Sofa]

YES, GUY BEHIND THE PLATE, WE KNOW YOU HAVE A PIRATES' FLAG AT A PIRATES' GAME IN THE PIRATES' STADIUM.

[OleMissCub]

I don't know, but I'm sooo angry right now. I guess I should be happy that the Cubs at least scored, but ARGHHH!!!!!.

[Roast]

hahahaha.

[Derwood]

ah jesus
