8/24 Cubs (Marshall) @ Dbacks (Owings) 8:40CT CSN

[Soul]

Wow Howry 96 MPH! That's faster than I'm used to seeing from him.

[JimSorgi]

If the Cubs had Upton he would be on the bench for a week after what he's done tonight.

[Schwarber Fan]

THROW STRIKES

Craig Monroe makes his first appearance.

 

What number is he wearing, out of curiosity?

[Soul]

Now is not the time to start putting runners on.

stupid question:

 

why did Lou bat for Marshall and take him out of the game withthe bases loaded and zero outs? y not just tell him "dont swing at anyting below the bellybutton"?

[illiniguy]

great, a walk.

[XZero771679666304]

I think the Cubs' staff need to be fitted for shock collars that are triggered when they start nibbling.

[soccer10k]

Come Bobby, get a groundball here.

Not a stupid question at all.

He wanted Ward to break the game open. It didn't work.

 

That wasn't a stupid question at all.

 

Tony Clark scares me

what?

[illiniguy]

I have a really bad feeling here.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 28-13 when they allow fewer than 3 walks.... 38-48 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[IowaCubsFan]

Be careful here.

by INVITING the doubleplay??????

 

 

 

ugh. I dont get it. I just dont. 76 pitches, let him hit, just point out the obvious (nothing low, nothing resembling a slider)

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Finish Him!

[CubsBears29]

I hate when they show stat graphics like that, and the commentator blows his load over... "Tony Clark O FOR 8 vs Bob Howry!!". Feels like a gigantic kiss of death.

[XZero771679666304]

I have a really bad feeling here.

 

Having a bad feeling comes standard with being a Cubs fan.

[Irrelevant Dude]

I just can't get enough of seagulls eating garbage off the field on the Brewers/Giants broadcast.

 

Anyway, still 9-6 Giants in the 6th.

[soccer10k]

One more Bobby.

[IowaCubsFan]

Is it just me, or does it seem like Clark has put on a few pounds?
