Maybe they are waiting for us to get Arod at SS so we can afford to have his slumps in cf :wink:

 

yeah.... that works for me. :wink:

[Fred Hornkohl]

Donde esta Pie?

 

Benched in favor of Jacque.

 

Somebody hasn't looked at the lineup yet. :wink:

[Roast]

nonono...keep pie here

 

Dominican Dominance!

 

Keeping him up here to sit around is stupid.

 

Send him down.

 

 

 

Also, WTH Plesac? More pitching? What about SS? What about a catcher who doesnt blow?

[anabiono]

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano singled to center field

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot sacrificed, 5-3, Soriano to second

[vj9999]

Theriot was safe

[inari]

Another bad call at first. We better get some makeup calls for today and yesterday.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 17-6 when they execute a sac bunt.... 27-36 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[inari]

Gah. Taken out of an inning by a bad call and poor baserunning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano picked off second base, 1-5-4-6

[Laura]

good grief, please schedule another baserunning clinic.

[anabiono]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[otis89]

I can't see the game, so what did Soriano think he was doing?

Why the hell is Soriano getting picked off again?

Why the hell are we sacrificing in the first inning?

Why the hell is Soriano getting picked off again?

 

He wasn't trying to sacrifice, he was bunting for a hit, and he was safe.

[anabiono]

good lord he is an outstanding defensive shortstop...too bad his bat is subpar

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Stop sac bunting. Just stop it.

[Chocolate Milk]

Why the hell are we sacrificing in the first inning?

 

I think Theriot was bunting for a hit. Horrible call by the ump.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 22-14 when they score in the first inning.... 22-28 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Youman was given 2 outs by the Cubs... nice job guys

[anabiono]

oh yeah!

 

BIG MOCRACKIN Z TIME BABY!!!
