8/18 Cardinals (Reyes) @ Cubs (Marshall) 2:55 FOX

[J.R.]

Nice.

[C.C.]

That was terrible, but it worked out.

[Outshined_One]

That...was just weird.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

And Marshall bunts through one...but Kendall still ends up on second.

[CubmanPi]

I just heard Girardi drop the "clog the bases" bomb. Lovely.

 

Yeah that almost made me spit out my beer.

Was he being serious?!?

[Schwarber Fan]

LOL

[UMFan83]

WTH? He definitely fouled that ball

[C.C.]

Marshall can't field or bunt.

[Outshined_One]

I just heard Girardi drop the "clog the bases" bomb. Lovely.

 

Yeah that almost made me spit out my beer.

Was he being serious?!?

 

Yep. He said that Kendall wasn't the kind of baserunner who would clog up the bases.

 

Makes me glad Piniella got the job over him. Yeesh.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Maybe this is the inning we break through against Reyes.

[C.C.]

C'mon guys!

Was he being serious?!?

 

Yes. :lol:

 

He said at least Kendall has enough speed that he won't "clog the bases".

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Theriot walks.

 

Come on, Jacque!

[C.C.]

Not even close...This is our inning!

I was just gonna say, I feel bad pulling for Hendry to hire Girardi now. That's just... wow.

[C.C.]

Wait for your pitch JJ.

[Outshined_One]

Considering the pitches he throw to Marshall and Theriot, Jacque better take.

 

Dangit.

[soccer10k]

Let's go Jacque. Come up with another big hit for us. Or at least no DP.

[C.C.]

Damn! I thought that would squeak through.

[CubmanPi]

C'mon, Jock. Continue in your ways of the stud.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Jones reaches on a fielder's choice, with Theriot forced at second. Runners on the corners, two out.

 

Come on, Lee!

[Outshined_One]

Nice job pulling a ball on the outside, Jacque.

 

You got lucky.

[C.C.]

Can DLEE get a meaningful hit?

[Iceblink]

I'm not even watching the game and I know Lee will take at least one strike over the outside corner.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

can he get any hit at all?
