No Bay or Nady? The Cubs should win this game but, we all know the Cubs haven't exactly been adapt at winning games they should win.

how bad is it raining...does it look like the game is going to start or no?

 

The CSN pre-game said the game will start on time, that if it does rain that it will be very light, and that the grounds crew doesn't expect any rain delays.

[A New Era]

Murton in the line-up YES!!

I guess I am on deck so I was supposed to start if Bob Sanders did not appear, but I'm all for keeping the winning streak going. If we happen to lose and Bob Sanders is still MIA I'll start the next thread.

 

Anyways, go Cubs but also GO BEARS

 

Sorry for stealing your thunder, but we needed to change it up a bit. The team needed someone fresh off the bench. We need to play the hot hand!

 

I'll PM Bob to let him know he's next after your streak.

Looks like Lou is trying desperately to get some good production out of RF. Floyd has looked lost at the plate. I wonder if the job is Murton's to win?

[Bruce Miles]

Tarp is off. Low clouds but no rain yet.

[Derwood]

once again, the almost-last-place White Sox are on WGN on a Sunday afternoon while the tie-for-first Cubs are on CSN. Oh, and Fox Sports Pittsburgh isn't showing it either. FTH?

i really hope so

Weeks, Hardy, Braun all with back to back to back HR's to start the game and Brewers are up 3-0.

[CuseCubFan69]

Are you sure this game is on WGN? My listings have the Sox on at 2.

I just saw that. This is dumb.

I think he meant that it was on WGN radio, but yes it was confusing and I got my hopes up for a second for nothing.

Oh yay for you.

[abuck1220]

homer, homer, homer, single, single for the brewers. no outs.

I would hope Homer Bailey is hurt. Otherwise this clown pitching is ridiculous.

Well good at least someone is trying to win the division

Don't shoot the messenger~

 

I posted when Votto gave the Reds a 3 run lead in the 1st yesterday too, not just when the Brewers do something.

The Reds starter has like a 14 ERA on the year (before this game) so its more the Reds stinking and less the Brewers trying to win. Anyway if the Brewers are going to break that record for 3+ run leads blown they are gonna need to get a lot of early leads.

cincy's starter throws 12 pitches, gives up 5 hits (3 homeruns), gets no outs, and is done. nice outing.

[Omar]

I had no idea this game was at 12:35. I thought it was at 6 once again. Anyhow, it better be over by the Bears game. With Steve Trachsel pitching, that's not a safe bet. Match-ups in a couple minutes.

Don't worry...that scrub Ben Sheets is throwing for the Brewers. The Reds will be right back in this one
