8/12: Cubs (Marshall) vs Rockies (TBA) 2:05 PM WGN

Wow, quick hook. They were just hoping he could get them through the order once or twice without too much damage before we figured him out.

That's a quick hook...

Which he did. :twisted:

[inari]

Gotta hope getting in their pen early actually ends up being a good thing.

 

On another note, Damian Miller just had a 10 pitch AB. He was out, but still.

[radarluv1]

keep it up, jj

[inari]

Crap. The bullpen's going to shut us down the rest of the way.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Damn, Jacque!

 

Now we need some good work from Marshall to hold the lead.

[Rusch33]

keep it up, jj

 

Grounding into double plays?

[killthegoat06]

The inning wouldn't be complete without a DP...

[inari]

Colorado's bullpen ERA is 4.10. I'd hope we can get a couple more, at least.

[Sammy Sofa]

Great. Ye olde Jacque is making an appearance.

[Sammy Sofa]

I think the Astros just tied it up!

 

They did! Wigginton solo shot to LF!

If Marshall gives the lead right back I'll be mildly (see: extremely) frustrated.

keep it up, jj

I have a feeling Jones could hit 60 HRs, bat .425 (with a nifty .600 OBP), cure cancer and give all his earthly possessions to charity and he could still do no right with Cubs fans haha.

They did. 2-2 on a Ty Wiggington homer.

[Rusch33]

Wigginton homer.

 

Game tied @ 2 in Houston.

[TMan92]

Tie game in Houston

To mock those of us earlier:

 

0.5?

i'm just kidding.

 

settle down.

[Guancous]

Everyone take a deep breath. We're down 2 early in Coors Field with Johnny McScrub pitching. Let's see what he does the 2nd time through the order.

 

Come on everyone, keep the faith. That's all that separates us from Mets fans!

Thank you. This day is nowhere near over, let alone the season.

 

Let's find out who the Milwaukee Brant Brown is.

 

Let's see who our Neifi Perez (in Colorado) savior is.

No need to settle down. I should have put a disclaimer that I wasn't picking on you personally. I just wanted to add that, because I feel the same way.

[killthegoat06]

2.5 -> 0.5???

Except Mets fans' faith is often rewarded.

Nice inning from Marshall.

 

Now, let's get some runs off the Colorado pen.
