7/18 Giants (Cain) at CUBS (Big Z), 1:20 PM CT, WGN

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

that was the most unexpected inning i've seen in a while...shut em down z

[98navigator]

Jacque 2 RBI single off of Klesko!

that was a hit

 

Yes, it was a hit. He hit it hard and Klesko never had a chance.

[Sarcastic]

For those that saw that hit. If Lee is the 1B, does Jones get a 2 RBI hit there?

 

No. It was hit hard, but would normally have been an out.

[inari]

Z needs to not meltdown. Go 6 or 7 and hand the ball to the bullpen. Too bad Lou misused Marmol so badly yesterday or he'd be available.

[UMFan83]

Who needs Kendall?

 

 

The Giants...

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

Tomorrow's headline: Hell freezes over: Two OF THE worst hitters ever get 4 RBIs.

 

fixed: cuz you gotta factor in neifi and izturis to that club as well...o and rob bowen

[Derwood]

<------ stunned that jock got a hit after falling behind 0-2

 

he rolled it over to the first baseman....anyone else over there would have made a routine 4-1 put out

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Wow! This lineup is coming through today!

 

It seems to work out that way a lot this year.

What Z needs is a 1-2-3 inning here.

 

The baine of this team has been giving runs back immediately after a big inning.

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

that may be what z needed, but what i need is for Z to throw STRIKES!

[bcruise]

I liked the emotion from from Jacque - both after the "hit" and after scoring.

[98navigator]

Correction: Koyie's hit was a double and he went to 3B on the throw home.

[TysonCBulls423]

I feel bad for the opposition when they go from seeing Z to Marmol.

[Outshined_One]

Who needs Kendall?

 

 

The Giants...

 

We'll talk Cain off their hands...and Lincecum, if they ask nicely.

Eh, we really haven't been doing that for a couple of months.

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

Correction: Koyie's hit was a double and he went to 3B on the throw home.

anytime koyie hill makes it to thrid on a ball that he hits should be a triple cuz he has no business getting to first even let alone third

[TruffleShuffle]

We should take guesses on what Matt Cain is pitching right now. I'll go with:

 

"Oh well, might as well chalk up another one in the loss column for me."

 

Note: This was before Koyie's 2 run double.

 

well once you give up a pair of two-out, 2 RBI to Jock Jones and Koyie Hill, I think you can say that you earned the loss

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Who needs Kendall?

 

 

The Giants...

 

We'll talk Cain off their hands...and Lincecum, if they ask nicely.

 

Heck, throw Lowry in that mix.

[TruffleShuffle]

<------ stunned that jock got a hit after falling behind 0-2

 

he rolled it over to the first baseman....anyone else over there would have made a routine 4-1 put out

 

if that's true, why wasn't it an error?

[98navigator]

For those that saw that hit. If Lee is the 1B, does Jones get a 2 RBI hit there?

 

 

No, probably not but DLee can handle some tough hops. Most 1B are more like Klesko than DLee.

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

Who needs Kendall?

 

 

The Giants...

 

We'll talk Cain off their hands...and Lincecum, if they ask nicely.

give them kendall and cliff floyd for both...those two fit in wit the theme they have of old players who are breaking down

Well something will have to give then because the Giants don't score any runs when Cain is pitching.

[chuckywang]

the lineup very well could have Pagan, Jones, Hill and Izturis. Good thing Zambrano has at least a chance at a hit or two.

 

If that happens, MLB will give the Cubs a call saying that they are not fielding a competitive team.

[98navigator]

Another nice 1-2-3 inning.

 

Go Z!

[IWU_CUBS_FAN]

great jorb there Z...now is it too much for me to ask this particular lineup to add on, or is 4 their max?
