ARAMABOMBA!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Have a seat, Neifi]

Holy crap.

[Soul]

Well there's a bomb. Sure wish it was before with 2 on though.

[Smack]

A-Ram!

[IowaCubsFan]

Wow. That thing brought down rain.

[E.J.]

What sore wrist?

[Sammy Sofa]

Holy Jeez, that ball was brutalized.

[Handlebar McSkullet]

OH NO!!!! ITS A......

 

 

ARAMABOMB!!!!!! BOOM!!!!!

[Magnetic Curses]

he's singled and walked tonight. let's not crucify him for striking out looking. i'd rather he look at strike 3 than swing at ball four.

 

Well....he looked at strikes 1 and 2 as well.

 

so? i don't see how that matters. reds pitchers walked what 4 cubs that inning, a very difficult task.

[Cynosure]

sup ramirez

[IowaCubsFan]

Ramirez just seems to get better every year.

[Cynosure]

Glad DeRosa has done nothing productive over the past 3 weeks.

So it would be nice to see our slugger take the bat off his shoulder at least once per at bat.

not really, he's pretty much the same, which is a very good thing anyway.

I know. He's just struggling right now I don't know what it is. Doesn't look comfortable right now. But yeah I'm not going to get out the crucifix and nails or anything.

[Sammy Sofa]

DeRosa really needs a break.

[Have a seat, Neifi]

Murton on base for the 3rd time in 4 innings.

[IowaCubsFan]

Nice at-bat by Murton there. Make them work.

[Soul]

Brenly called that pitch perfectly.

[chuckywang]

7 BB's for the Reds? A very Cubs-like game they got going on here.

[E.J.]

Murton with an rbi double and 2 walks on the night. I'm glad he's getting the playing time now. The Soriano injury could be a blessing in disguise.

i don't see what he could have done with any of those pitches. they were pretty much perfect. it's not like he looked at 3 down the middle. he was looking for a mistake over the plate, tip your cap to santos, he's good for a series of pitches like that maybe once every 20 appearances.

[Smack]

Dare I say it, he's looking comfortable up there. It's amazing what same playing time will do....

[Sammy Sofa]

Jacque wants to hit everything out now.

[Magnetic Curses]

i wonder if santos realizes that jones can crush that outside pitch.
