That hit by Delgado should be like slop in pool. Delgado should wave it off :)

[Electron Blue]

Stupid Shift.

Double Steal

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pisshands will make us pay. I feel it.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 19-28 when the opponent steals a base.... 38-23 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Soul]

Crap, this is all with 2 outs. Come on, GET OUT OF IT.

[Flames24Rulz]

Haha, the reaction of the crowd on that K was priceless.

[Soul]

*GREAT* pitch.

[Alfonso Soriano]

YES!

[Electron Blue]

CUBS are 19-28 when the opponent steals a base.... 38-23 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

wow. just one base? that is an extreme difference!

[Dirt Dog Sparly]

XM just preempted WGN's feed to go with ESPN's feed!!!

 

:evil:

 

They use the ESPN feed any time they can it seems - must be cheaper. On a related note what I want to know is how come other networks allow their pregame show to be broadcast on XM but the Cubs broadcast doesn't begin until seconds before first pitch?

 

Just got off the phone with XM. It is part of the FOX national game of the week contract that XM has to use the national feed too.

 

As far as pregame and not pregame, it is up to the station. Some allow pregame to be broadcast and some dont.

Geez McClelland, don't do that to us

Wow - thanks. We should request to WGN that they allow the pregame to be broadcast.
