09/04 L.A. (Penny) @ CUBS (Trachsel) 7:05pm, CSN-TV

[TruffleShuffle]

penny's command is lousy in this game, but of course the cubs can't do squat

[Alfonso Soriano]

Lee doubles to deep right

[inari]

I'll get it out of the way; why couldn't you do that earlier?!

[Alfonso Soriano]

LOL COBS

[inari]

Fred, I mentioned a while ago that it seems Aramis seems to be drawing a lot more walks lately... any stats to back that up?

[TruffleShuffle]

gave that one a ride

[inari]

LOL COBS

 

Yes yes, we get it. LOL [player that makes out], LOL COBS [end of inning]

 

Rinse, wash, repeat. We understand. Really.

[BigSlick]

I look away for a second after the Lee double and I turn back and the commercials are on.

 

What did Aramis do?

[Fred Hornkohl]

[sigh]

[Alfonso Soriano]

Why do we always wait until the 7th inning to score?

[BigSlick]

Lets see if Juan Pierre can actually find a way to punish us here.

 

Probably wont, he's really really really bad.

[Alfonso Soriano]

Juan "I dropped the ball" Pierre

[inari]

If the Dodgers are gonna score anytime soon, this seems like as good of an inning as any to do it. 2-3-4 hitters up. Granted, the first one is Pierre, but the other two are scaryish.

[JimSorgi]

Please score offense

[circlecitycub]

Don't walk Pierre here.

[SouthSideRyan]

It'd be really weird if Trachsel struck out Pierre.

[TruffleShuffle]

it's juan pierre, throw strikes

[Omar]

Pierre grounds a Pierre. 1 down.

[inari]

Tricky play for DeRo. One down.

[BigSlick]

HO ho ho ho ho

 

The old 4-3.

 

You're a clever one Pierre, but you wont get past us this time. :lol:

[CubFanPhilly]

Thank you JP.

Yeah.... it's a reasonable assertion.........
