8/3 Mets (Hernandez) @ Cubs (Big Z) 1:20 CT, WGN

[Allroy]

Well boys, its been fun. Hello second place.

[TruffleShuffle]

oh good, it's one of those games where MLBtv says i'm need to pay more money to upgrade my subscription, even though i already did so three months ago.

[kujay]

Z injured?

[Choonch]

Yeah, I'm afraid that is the game. Our offense is putrid somedays, and today looks like one of them. :(

[Balsa]

Well that just sucks.

 

Is Piniella pitching now?

 

This is ridiculous.

[JGalt73]

At least he didn't serve it up after some of his plentiful walks.

[inari]

And Z is hurt. There goes our season.

[C.C.]

I guess it's his foot...

[David]

Crap... why does it sound like people are cheering for this?

 

Mets fans.

 

How the hell are there enough Mets fans at Wrigley Field to be noticed?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Marmol in to pitch for the CUBS

[TysonCBulls423]

This is not good.

[Sarcastic]

It just keeps getting better, doesn't it.

[USSoccer]

So...Z is hurt?

[C.C.]

Looks like a loss today...Hopefully Brewers will continue to slide.

[Balsa]

So...Z is hurt?

Hopefully it's just cramps.

[Allroy]

So...Z is hurt?

 

Ron says it looks like a cramp. I'm nervous.

[UMFan83]

If the Cubs lose this one, they will be 6-7 in their last 13 games.

man wood and veder are dogs

[CubmanPi]

Good lord. I really hope this is just a cramp like Pat and Ron are speculating. Z missing any real amount of time is enough to put a serious dent into the last two months.

 

Though in all fairness, with the quality of Z's pitching today, I'd say it was getting real close to his time to leave anyway. Hold it down, Marmol.

[C.C.]

So...Z is hurt?

Hopefully it's just cramps.

 

Seems that way...

[windycityfan]

Looks like a loss today...Hopefully Brewers will continue to slide.

 

Where's the spirit?

[USSoccer]

So...Z is hurt?

 

Ron says it looks like a cramp. I'm nervous.

 

Hopefully just cramps plus the fact he threw 93 pitches.

[C.C.]

Yeah he was at 90 pitches.

Green grounded out to second, 4-3
