08/09 CUBS (Lilly) @ Colorado (Jimenez) 8:05pm, WGN TV

[Cynosure]

Ahhhh these are the days I can laugh at all of the Kendall haters!

 

What about the fact that he's still among the worst hitting major leaguers?

 

That counts for nothing?

He's got a higher than .380 OBP on the Cubs. I couldn't care less where he's ranked for the full season if he keeps that up.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Buchholz in to pitch for Colorado

[CyHawk_Cub]

Keep this train rolling Riot..

[hawkeyecub]

From the FYI department: Since his 1-15 start, Kendall is 14-38 as a Cub and has a .368/.455/.474 line in those last 12 games.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lilly grounded out to first, unassisted , runners holding

[TruffleShuffle]

announcers mention the huge crowd tonight and attribute it to the rockies hot play of late - never mind that at least a quarter of the crowd is rooting for the cubs

[Brian]

Uh oh Buchholz is a former Astro.. right? Hopefully no left over bad mojo from Houston left in him.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot flied out to deep center field , Kendall scored, Pie to third

[RammyFanny]

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones singled to center field , Pie scored

[CyHawk_Cub]

JJ looks like a major leaguer tonight

[E.J.]

Jacque Jones is doing pretty well tonight. :D

[Brian]

Some of these knocks could have helped the last 3 days boys.

[Careless]

Does santo always call Hendry "Henry"?

He did it at least twice during this inning
