7/14 CUBS (Lilly) vs. Astros (Oswalt), 2:55 PM CT, FOX

[bhogg]

I'd like to kick my local FOX affilate in the nuts.

 

All week they advertise the Cubs and Astros.

 

I turn it on and BAM --- Cards and Phils.

 

I hate Fox so much.

Looks like Floyd is hurt, going to the clubhouse.

super, the one day he could really help us out with his bat and he can't play.

 

He managed to give away a run before he left though!

or he hurts us defensively and leaves before he can help us with the bat.

[E.J.]

I'm amazed Floyd is even able to walk around without somehow hurting himself.

[98navigator]

Oswalt's going to give up some runs today.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ensberg flied out to left field

[E.J.]

Glass Joe is done for the game.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Well, now Fontenot is in the game.

[UMFan83]

Cya in late August Cliffy

Floyd out, Derosa in RF, Fontenot to 2nd

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Lilly is looking much sharper this inning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Bruntlett grounded out to short, 6-3

[E.J.]

Looks like Floyd is hurt, going to the clubhouse.

 

Maybe we'll call up Murton tomorrow.

 

Or pull the string on a deal for Dunn.

I'd need clean pants if that happened.

[CyHawk_Cub]

5 pitch inning for Lilly

[E.J.]

great inning for Lilly. only 5 pitches. that definitely helps the pitch count.

5 pitch inning for Lilly

 

that was making quick work of the Astros there.

I'd need clean pants if that happened.

 

personally, i wouldn't even bother getting clean pants for myself, they'd just get ruined soon after

[E.J.]

I wonder if the Cubs would call up Josh Kroeger if Floyd is going to be hurt for a while. He's been great for both Tenn and Iowa.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Budweiser/George Clooney Count = 1

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 22-14 when they score in the first inning.... 23-29 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[inari]

The Fox mistake count is still only at one!

One word: Depends...it's the only way to go for those all-to-special social occasions, or for long stints on the couch...
