9/2 Cubs (Mountain) vs. Astros (Comedian) 1:20 WGN

[CubmanPi]

To add to the classic Cubs factor, Izturis is three for three today in Milwaukee.

So you're saying he's helping the Cubs out more today than he has in any week he spent when he was actually on the team? Sweet.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pence grounded out to short, 6-3

[KyHen]

Is Lee OK?

[Keener98]

The amazing part is, that a lot of you people actually expected DeRosa to do something good. Is this your first game this year?

Floyd actually kept the inning alive, and DeRo has been among the more solid players this season. Plus, Cubs actually have a chance of coming back in games this year. To bad it's September and the Astros.

 

1st half yea but his 2nd half OPS is now in the 600's along with Floyds

it is actually, i just started watching the games because I heard the cubs were in first place.

[SouthSideRyan]

Jim Tracy lets the pitcher hit for himself with a runner on and expanded rosters.

What parallel universe are you living in?

And the one were Ryan Braun and Rick Ankiel are in a pennant chase with a team including Derrek Lee, Aramis, Carlos Zambrano, and Soriano

The one where freakin' Looper is a staff ace!

Where Brendan Ryan hits .340 and Rick Ankiel hits .350 with a lot of power. Cardinal Nation.

[Outshined_One]

Is Lee OK?

 

Nope. Injuries to your chest have a nasty tendency to linger without a few days' rest.

[SouthSideRyan]

Injury delay in Milwaukee.

[CubmanPi]

Jones

This is where deficits get erased, folks.

Those guys will be setting the table for Sori.

 

Sori will then pop out, and Riot will hit a HR to put the Cobs back in the game.

[SouthSideRyan]

Apparently it's Miller who was injured.

[TMan92]

Injury delay in Milwaukee.

 

Damian Miller. I was hoping lightening hit Ryan Braun through the roof.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Nothing like a little bit of Fan Cam to cheer me up.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Sometimes I wish being annoyingly juvenile in every game thread was a bannable offense.

[Fred Hornkohl]

McLemore in to pitch for Houston

[illiniguy]

Take the walk this time.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones walked

[PrimeTime]

Thank God tommorrow is a holiday,so I can go out and get loaded and sleep in sumones lawn after watching this crap

[CubmanPi]

Jock leadoff walk! Where's the rally Pickler?

[IowaCubsFan]

Mark McLemore looks a lot younger and whiter than I remember.
