7/27 Cubs (Hill) @ Reds (Arroyo) 6:10pm CT, CSN+, XM 188

[Bruce Miles]

The Cubs were the road team and went ahead in the top of the inning. That hasn't happened here, so if it did rain and they couldn't play, the Reds would win 2-1. The home team gets a chance to come back if the visitors go ahead before the delay. Hence, the suspension.

what's the forcast like?? is this rain staying all night? its 3.10am over here and i'm starting to get a little angry!!

[Schwarber Fan]

This is so frustrating... Hill can't get anyone out and any more runs with the rain falling harder just takes away any chance of the game continuing.

rain falling harder

 

this one's gonna be called

 

And of course Hill tries his hardest to prolong the Reds half of the inning.

yea, rain all night

 

no way this isn't called

Remember when we were all kinda bracing for the Cubs to cool down and return to the old Cubs but we were kinda hoping that it was for real. Well it might not be. Hill and Marquis are slumping, the offense can't hit, and we've hit 8 HRs in July, last in the league. Time to worry is now.

 

yeah, not a good stretch

 

the last two against AZ

 

barely beat Kip Wells

soundly beat Wainwright

couldn't do anything with Looper while Marquis got abused

 

and tonight.

[TysonCBulls423]

I'm more worried about the rain than the offense's ability to come back.

[cubweiser03]

they will delay the game, hopefully if they do that, the rain will stop after a couple hours. if after a couple and the forecast looks like crap, then this will suck.

[UMFan83]

It's only a matter of time before this game gets blown open. Rich Hill has nothing tonight.

[CyHawk_Cub]

What song is that they keep playing over the ballpark sound system?

Watch out for those pieces of falling sky.

"The Sweet Escape" by Gwen Stefani - I think it's Phillips' song.

THROW A DAMN STRIKE

[Keener98]

THROW STRIKES DAMNIT!

[Brian]

Dunn granny coming up

[Schwarber Fan]

Ok Dunn,just hit one out and let the rain fall

 

go get em tomorrow

[TysonCBulls423]

Hill needs some luck right here

[Brian]

Dunn will have to settle for a 3 run jack

[UMFan83]

Wow the rain and wind must have battted that down, I thought Phillips killed that. Edited July 28, 2007 by UMFan83

[Alfonso Soriano]

Huge out right there

[cubweiser03]

phillips is on rich tonight.

[Schwarber Fan]

Even if this game continues, no way the Cubs manage a HR tonight.

[soccer10k]

Well this isn't what I wanted to see upon getting back from dinner.

Rich Hill defines "laboring" through innings
