[Alfonso Soriano]

1-0

I'm so excited about the idea of having Marquis around for another 2 years. :x

Eh, it was a bad signing, but it's not like we have a lot of starting pitching depth.

 

Marquis doesn't exactly effect our depth. We have guys in the minors that could do what he does for a fraction less.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

We're lucky to only be down one run.

[E.J.]

Thank God. That could have been much worse.

[Soul]

All things considered...

[Sammy Sofa]

I hope we make the playoffs just so Marquis' awfulness can truly be appreciated on a grand scale once more.

 

It's a miracle we only gave up 1 there. Hopefully everyone gives Marquis the Full Metal Jacket soaping for walking the first 2 batters of the damn game of one of the worst teams in baseball.

We have Sean Gallager, past that there is nothing.

[anabiono]

[Sammy Sofa]

YEAH.

 

TAKE THOSE PITCHES.

[inari]

Haha... one pitch one out.

[Alfonso Soriano]

First Pitch Swinging.

8 pitches 4 outs for the Cobs

[UMFan83]

8 pitches 4 outs

[Soul]

Unfortunately this is the night where the Giants have the pitching to look like a baseball team.

[Omar]

5 up 5 down.

[UMFan83]

So not only is Lincecum going to pitch a perfect game, but because of the Cubs impatient style, he is going going to record a strikeout, screwing over my fantasy team.

[Sammy Sofa]

So...much...POWAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Hey! a Hit! :shock:

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh my God, don't slide into 1st. It's just stupid.

[inari]

Don't do that, DeRo...

[UMFan83]

Darn, I was hoping Vizquel would throw him out so it would be 12 pitches for 6 outs

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Klesko is so graceful.

[soccer10k]

Fontenot doesn't have a prayer against Lincecum.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I have a bad, bad feeling about this game.

[Alfonso Soriano]

And when is Fontenot going back to AAA?

[XZero771679666304]

Oh my God, don't slide into 1st. It's just stupid.

 

Of all the stupid things in baseball, sliding into first is by a wide margin the stupidest.
