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

[radarluv1]

the dodgers are playing awful baseball right now.

[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!

 

Except Mets fans' faith is often rewarded.

 

I will say this: at least the Cubs never lost a potential dynasty to rampant cocaine abuse.

herges cant pitch 5 like bucholtz did earlier.

get him now.

Yeah but we lost a potential dynasty to the Mets.

 

 

 

(ok the late 60's-early 70's Cubs were a stretch but who knows what would have happened if we made the playoffs in 69)

Now that the Astros have tied the game up, the only question is who will be the Brewers hero today?

 

Braun and Hart would be the favorites, but I'm guessing that Weeks gets in on the action today.

Those cokeheads still got at least one WS more than we have in a century. Snort away, boys...

I think we are still going to pay for only scoring three of their starter.

[killthegoat06]

Let's add on!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Ugh...I fear this will be a quick inning for Herges.

[UMFan83]

That was Murton's best AB today and it resulted in a 3 pitch routine flyout to left

[inari]

JJ Hardy will hit a 2 strike 2 out grand slam in the 9th to erase the Astros 6-3 lead.

 

Anyway, Lee and Murt looked awful. We can't afford to get shut out by this bullpen.

Not this time around.

[RynoRules]

Hope Marsh can make this hold up.

[cubsfan5150]

Brewers/Astros 2-2 going into the bottom of the 7th

You're right....

 

 

It will probably be Hardy today.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

We need another couple of good innings from Marshall.

[RynoRules]

Yeah Empire Day!

[inari]

We need another couple of good innings from Marshall.

 

If he can get through six and not give up anymore runs, the baseball gods shall be praised.

[RynoRules]

Ronny S has some bling on.

[inari]

How many calls that aren't even that close can go the Rockies way this series?

[FeArThEbEaRd]

jj on his horse

[Sammy Sofa]

Well, grand.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Crap!

[hawkeyecub]

Dear Lord he murdered that ball. Thankfully Jacque is flashing some leather to make that a solo shot.
