Fielder is cool. Gets 4 strikes per K, whereas most just get 3.

[Schwarber Fan]

18 pitch inning for Z

[da bears]

98 on the gun for Z.

 

:shock: looks like hes pumped up tonight. hows he look out there?

[soccer10k]

Huge fist pump from Z after the K. I hope to see 8 more of those today.

[Andy]

Z made Fielder look pretty silly.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 56-40 when they don't allow any runs is the first inning.... 11-23 when they do

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[CubsBears29]

98 on the gun for Z.

 

:shock: looks like hes pumped up tonight. hows he look out there?

 

Other than getting to 3-ball counts vs Weeks and Gross, pretty solid.

 

Fielder was given an extra strike and still K'd.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Wow...Z is bringing the heat tonight...

[BigSlick]

I'm still surprised how far Rickie Weeks' ball went, that wasn't a good swing at all on it.

 

Is it really flying out of there today? We might have some problems if it is.

[XZero771679666304]

Make Sheets throw a lot of pitches and see how that blister holds up.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano lined out to center field

[BigSlick]

Bleh, not a bad at-bat by Soriano.

[CubsBears29]

Grrrr... the baseball gods hate us.

 

Those balls always hang up for the OFs, where as the opponents seem to drop in more times than not.

[BigSlick]

WHAT

 

HOW IS THAT A STRIKE AND NOT THAT OTHER PITCH

[CubsBears29]

Blowing in briskly, actually.

[BigSlick]

Yay!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot grounded an IF single to shortstop

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

way to go Ryan!

[SouthSideRyan]

WOW can't believe he beat that out.

[Guest]

wow theriot is fast.

[CubsBears29]

Sure hope DLee and ARam were taking notes... good things can happen if apply a bit of hustle on the basepaths.

[inari]

Nice hustle.

[CubsBears29]
