8/29 Cubs (Zambrano) vs. Brewers (Sheets) 7:05 CT CSN

[CubFanPhilly]

Anyone got a fork? Sheets is done.

[BigSlick]

plz plz plz basehit.

 

Bleh you suck Floyd.

[rawaction]

I'll go on record to say it was a dumb move to have Theriot bunt, after the 1st two guys got hit.

 

You got a pitcher that hasn't pitched in 2 months. At the very least, you gotta make him throw some pitches. Don't give up the out.

[soccer10k]

Lou's gotta get off his sac bunt fetish. Enough already.

 

CUBS are 16th in the National League in Sacrifice hits.

 

hahahahhahaha

 

Thanks Fred

 

That's awesome.

[Keener98]

Good job Gramps.

[CubsBears29]

We need to capitalize in those situations in the future tonight.

 

Won't bemoan getting a run, but could/should have been more.

Good job Gramps.

 

To be fair, he wheeled his wheelchair to make a decent grab earlier in this game.

Agreed. Much bigger inning if Theriot hits away.

[Soul]

Anyone got a fork? Sheets is done.

 

Not yet. I like that we made him throw some pitches though. Hopefully he's not able to get it back together.

hasn't been that bad. But the Cubs have seemingly failed a lot at sacrificing.

[ZMovieman]

Is Soriano actually hurt, speculation, or what?

[Schwarber Fan]

I don't see the "should have" part

But that doesn't cover botched attempts too, just the successful ones. The Cubs could *possibly* rank much higher in sacrifice attempts.

What this isn't showing is that we have a lot more plate appearances.

The blister's bothering him and his PC is high. I think the Cubs knock him out next inning.

[BigSlick]

Bleh, this is gonna be a tie game.

 

:x

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fielder doubled to left field

[Soul]

Crap NO.

 

Fielder leadoff damn double.

[DiamondMind]

god fielder hits the ball hard

[XZero771679666304]

Bad fatty

[Schwarber Fan]

roids

[BigSlick]

god fielder hits the ball hard

 

You could combine any two Cubs players and still come up very short in the "hits balls hard" department.

[Keener98]

And now we will give the run right back
