DeRosa with his first homer since I dont know when. Good thing Lou didnt sit him.

[illiniguy]

Thanks DLee this could be well over.

 

Yeah, Derrek really funked that one up. Brandon's got zilch.

oh well, he was money yesterday. Lee that is.

[Brian]

[Keener98]

forgive and forget lol

[Outshined_One]

6-0 Brewers and they are still batting. I think we can give up on gaining ground tonight.

 

Cardinals are getting smacked around, though.

As long as someone loses ground today, that's good enough for me.

Unless we're playing them, the Cardinals score is irrlevant to our playoff chances.

Indeed, but it'd be nice not to have to worry as much about them overtaking the Cubs coming into the upcoming four game series.

[SABR Gamer]

off topic, why the hell is LaRussa still batting the pitcher 8th? I thought it was a cute, annoying little gimmick the first time, but the fact that he still is, is just annoying and stupid, it makes no sense...O but it sets up the top of the order....no the top of the order sets itself up and i would want the pitcher to bat as little as possible, and what if a key situation falls to your pitchers spot? dumb managing, but then again, thats a good thing for us eh...

[inari]

There's no chance Marquis will make this easy on us.

We'd have a lot bigger worries than the Cardinals passing us if we lost 4 straight to them

[Outshined_One]

Soriano...wow.

 

That stupid hop comes back to haunt him.

[inari]

I know it didn't matter, but God Soriano's gotta catch that ball.

[Sammy Sofa]

Heh...I'll just chalk that up to Sori being "crafty."

[Keener98]

Soriano lol wow enough with the dumbass hop

[genbar]

STOP THE HOP, ADOLFO!

 

mannnnn

Lance Berkman has perfectly plucked eyebrows.
