7/19 Giants (Morris) @ Chicago (Lilly), 1:20 pm. CSN/WGN 720

[BeerHere]

Absolutely, positively MUST shut them down here.

[JeffH]

We're gonna blow this game. Book it.

 

What exactly do we have to do to stop this talk? You'd think winning 27 out of our last 40 would be good enough.

 

It's a game thread, what do you care? You're telling me what to post now? Get over yourself.

 

Do what you want, I'm not telling you anything.

 

I'm wondering what it will take for it to stop.

 

The Cubs to play better.

 

A World Championship.

[TruffleShuffle]

and now an outside fastball to derosa gets called a strike... what a crock

 

Those would have been balls to Bonds.

 

the pitches to bonds were more strikes than those, no question. Apparently in their preferential treatment of bonds, the umps forget that there's actually a team in a playoff race here.

[C.C.]

Absolutely, positively MUST shut them down here.

 

Yep. Have to win this game.

[badger1679666666]

Great call bringing in Ohman, Lou.

 

Your post is a moronic idiot.

 

Right when he brought Ohman in I said "Oh no, not Will Ohman." I think he should have left Wuertz in and thought that before Ohman served up the longball.

 

And Ohman struck him out. Can't blame him for the umps not calling strikes.

Ala Jordan pushing off vs the Jazz to hit the game winning shot?

WHO'S LEFT ON THE BENCH?

[BeerHere]

Man, I hope Marmol's arm can take this.

[WrigleyinEngland]

Man, i lay in to the cubs when they deserve it , they drive me up the freaking wall but what are you meant to do when the leading homerun hitter of our lifetime is allowed 5 strikes in an at bat????

[jyoung55]

WHO'S LEFT ON THE BENCH?

I think so.

[XZero771679666304]

Man, I hope Marmol's arm can take this.

 

The man is going to need 2-3 days off after this series.

[3Dog]

Steve McMichael better have speaks with that umpire..unless the 1st base ump tosses him again.

Well big Z or Marquis could always pinch hit

[Omar]

Why was Kendall taken out?

[E.J.]

Marmol is going to need arm surgery in a couple weeks. He's been used way too much.

[Soul]

Gameday must be whacked today. On the Feliz AB, when he hit the ball it said "no out"

 

Then he was out.

 

I wonder if that strikezone is off too. They've got another clear strike marked as a ball on the the Lewis AB

[Flames24Rulz]

That was a nice, quick inning for Marmol.

[Omar]

Inning over.

[Sarcastic]

Why was Kendall taken out?

 

Defensive replacement.

[jyoung55]

Why was Kendall taken out?

 

double switch to let marmol pitch to more than one batter

[Prior4CyYoung]

nice inning Marmol been solid all year.

[abuck1220]

my goodness, we get it...the cubs got screwed.

[BeerHere]

Just what the doctor ordered. Well done Marmol!
