Pie singled to right field , Kendall to third

 

Fred, Fred, Fred!!!

 

Now you're robbing Pie of slugging percentage?

 

What is going on?

 

Don't get your shorts in a knot. I got everything under control. Thanx.

 

Every great man's downfall started with these words.

 

:lol:

 

:wink:

[TruffleShuffle]

i was almost rooting for the inning to end so that the dreadful interview with matt holliday's wife would be over... yeah that's great his brother is coming to live with him, please tell me more you bore of a woman

[anabiono]

oh...i just really hope deep down inside that pie can start hitting on a consistent basis...

 

he is a huge asset, i just hope he can pull it together

 

friggin lou and his short leash

[CubColtPacer]

Being up 10-1 in the 4th inning is soooo awesome, but man, at the same time... this is hard to watch.

 

WHERE THE HELL WAS SOME OF THIS ANY OF THE LAST 3 DAYS!?!?! *sigh*

 

 

 

Sorry for the rant. Thanks for listening, though! :P

 

Teams go through rough patches and good patches, it happens.

 

Not to mention yesterday's game was a little bit of bad luck as well. It's pretty hard to have 17 baserunners and only get 2 runs. Tonight, the RISP numbers are good again, and those baserunners are scoring in bunches.

[hawkeyecub]

Just for fun since I already posted his numbers as a Cub since the 1-15 start, here's the updated line in his last 12 games (45 PA's):

 

.385/.467.538

[CubmanPi]

So does anyone think that Murton hitting the only two homeruns this team has in the last six months will be enough to keep him in the starting lineup just a LITTLE more often?

[badger1679666666]

Kendall doubled to left center field , DeRosa scored

 

I hate to be on an old man's jockstrap, but Kendall TRIPLED.

True enough..... but this is why we double check everything before we post it to their totals !! :wink:

[anabiono]

fred is slipping tonight, unless he posted the last one purpose

[Fred Hornkohl]

Torrealba flied out to left field

I don't know the exact numbers, but it HAD to be somewhere near 0-30 for the Cubs w/ RISP in that whole series vs the Astros - going by what Len was saying last night anywho - before they finally did something about it late last night. That's a little more than just "a little bad luck".

This is team is so frustrating. They can't score to save a life in Houston and now in four innings, they put up a 10-spot.

Considering we've been hitting awfully well with RISP over the past 2 months, it very well may have been just that.

dude, it is because you aren't there

[Fred Hornkohl]

Baker walked

I was trying to tell him, booze on the job is never a good thing.

[inari]

Man, this is just about the model of inefficiency. The umpire's horrible strike zone isn't helping one bit.

[Prior4CyYoung]

I think they said it was 0-32 with runners in scoring position but I know it was at least 0-30 though.

Seriously. Vance, what's the Cubs' record with you in attendance so far this year?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Sullivan blooped a single to left field , Baker to second

1-9 I saw it earlier :)

[JonnyRed]

I love the high mountain air in Colorado...that must be the reason for this outpouring of runs tonight. Whatever it is, let's keep it going!

I think Fred said the Cubs were 1-9 with vance in attendance this year earlier in the thread.
