8/28 Cubs (Hill) vs. Brewers (Suppan) 7:05 CT CSN

[XZero771679666304]

This is probably the decisive inning of the ball game, Hart-Fielder-Braun up. I'd use Marmol, but I suspect Lou will use Howry.

 

If there ever were a situation for Marmol to pitch, this would be it. He better be in this inning.

Yeah I am hoping for Marmol.

 

Howry is the guy.

 

Bad choice, IMO. Hope I'm wrong.

[TruffleShuffle]

hopefully losing cliff floyd's glove in RF doesn't cost us the game

[TMan92]

Why am I still not too comfy right now.

[otis89]

Steerike 3! 1 down!

[radarluv1]

i feel bad for bob. that had to hurt.

Jacque Jones moves from CF to RF. Felix Pie in at CF (remaining 9th in the order). Bob Howry now in pitching, batthing 5th. Cliff Floyd out of the game.

Hart scares me. Glad he chased a high one.

[Schwarber Fan]

Rammy homered against Arizona a few weeks ago.

 

that was more than a few weeks ago :shock:

[erik316wttn]

might want to cut down on that swing with 2 strikes ARam

 

taking suppan out was a bad move; yost is a bad manager

 

I can't wait to go check out the meltdown and "FIRE YOST!!!" posts in the Brewers forums after this one's over. (hoping the reversal of fortune stands in our favor)

 

It's true. Yost is completely clueless on how to handle a pitching staff. It's really sad.

[otis89]

Why am I still not too comfy right now.

 

Because it's the Cubs. They could be winning 50-2 right now, and you still wouldn't be comfortable.

[AlwaysaCub]

Uecker got real quite there.

 

Is he another one like Hawk?

I don't think so. I think this hurts him. They aren't in it every year.

 

Uecker is anything but a Hawk Harrelson. He's probably leaving now rather than the traditional end of the inning because he can't stand it, and honestly I feel for him. But not the rest of the team.

If we can't win I would want the Crew to.

 

I actually agree with you. But seeing as we can win...

Corey Hart strikes out swinging.

[inari]

Damn it...

[otis89]

Double play, please!

[Soul]

Is it just me or has the entire Brewers offense been on bloop singles tonight?

[Alfonso Soriano]

Here comes the Ryan Braun homer to tie it.

[CubsBears29]

Fielder blooping a single.

 

Some things just aren't right.

[Guest]

Prince Fielder singles to LF, still one out.

[Keener98]

Oh God please get him out Howry. Id still rather have Marmol in here

[TysonCBulls423]

How deep was Soriano? On the track?

[E.J.]

Why am I still not too comfy right now.

 

Because it's the Cubs. They could be winning 50-2 right now, and you still wouldn't be comfortable.

 

That and the Brewers have their best hitters up with the wind blowing out.

I seriously have doubts about that.

[illiniguy]

Please Ryan Braun for once hit into a double play.

[Soul]

Ack, this feels bad. Braun has a penchant for the dramatic homer.
