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

[Andy]

He did beat this one. :)

[Fred Hornkohl]

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

 

Please, don't start.

either of them would have been out by five feet. they would be more likely to get hurt than get a hit there.

Yes, like an injury.

Hard to convey stuff on MBs/GTs.

 

I don't take back what I said, but I didn't mean it nearly as harshly as it must read.

 

But nonetheless... consider it dropped.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot stole second base

[Schwarber Fan]

good job Riot, get him in Rammy

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Come on, Ramirez. Get him home!

[Guest]

would have been except for the well, maybe - not really driven.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 27-25 when they steal a base.... 40-38 when they don't

That was the CUBS' first stolen base in their last 10 games.

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guest]

Come on, Ramirez. Get him home!

 

 

they'll walk him now.

[illiniguy]

Did they shift for Ramirez there?

Not watching today - but with the wind blowing in at about 15 mph, wouldn't that mean it'd have been gone on a normal day?

[Schwarber Fan]

man, rammy could have smoked that 3-1 pitch

I stand corrected - that fastball was surprising - and nasty.

Its beyond obvious that DLee/ARam wouldn't have beaten a play like that out, but as recent examples, that single of DLee's that landed right by the OOB padding in RF last night... most likely should have been a 2B.

 

But again... I didn't bring it up to cause thread-consuming debate/argument.

[soccer10k]

Perfect defensive positioning by the Brewers there.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Ugh.

 

Well at least we worked Sheets a little that inning.

 

He's thrown 21 pitches.

It's blowing sorta left to right and out to RF

[illiniguy]

Did they shift for Ramirez there?

[Soul]

Did they shift for Ramirez there?

 

Crew announcers said they did.
