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

[inari]

How do we look like world beaters against Milwaukee and then have this happen against the Disastros?

[IowaCubsFan]

Williams scored from first on a freakin' double???

[Fred Hornkohl]

Biggio popped out to first base

World Beaters? We could have lost every one of those games.

I think I'm just going to turn this game off now. The game is over yet but with the way it's going, I don't want to watch.

 

Hopefully Rich and the Cubs turn it around.

Williams scored from first on a freakin' double???

 

ball was hit right at theriot, outfielders didn't react quickly because they probably figured he'd catch it since it was right at him.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fred, aren't you supposed to be at this game?

 

I sold my tickets.

[dbeider]

Any time our pitchers want to throw 0's the first 3-4 innings that would be great.

 

How many games in a row has the opp scored in the 1st or 2nd now?

 

It'd be nice to have and early lead and help them all to relax.

[CuseCubFan69]

how is that a double?

 

This is why ERA is not that great of a tool to use to evaluate a pitcher. If an INF gets out of the way of a ball it's a hit.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Berkman walked

[TMan92]

Soon to be 6-0

How dare you!

 

:lol:

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 30-15 when they allow fewer than 3 walks.... 40-50 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Who ever said that, the Cubs are an average team and have the best talent in the Central.

[CuseCubFan69]

Nice play by D and Lee.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Nice play by DeRosa.

If it is too much to ask for Floyd to sit behind Murton. The least we should do is fix the order so Lee is down towards the bottom and DeRosa is up behind Ramirez. Rammy isn't going to get crap to hit with Cliff behind him.

[CuseCubFan69]

Hill 51 pitches thru 2 Innings.

 

Well....he's improving!

[illiniguy]

Oh and Brendan Ryan is hitting .330

[CuseCubFan69]

How was that a linedrive Len?

[Fred Hornkohl]

DeRosa flied out to left center field
