[Omar]

1 more to go!

[Coach C]

*Whew* I thought for a minute that was gonna land safely on the ground.

 

2 down. Time to stand!

[KyHen]

Eek!

[SouthSideRyan]

Soriano is a very good defensive OF, I'm not being sarcastic.

 

But man, he makes it look ugly a lot.

[inari]

This would be a painful loss. Don't make it happen, Demp!

[Omar]

Chris Duncan in.

[Roast]

Duncan?

 

O RLY?

[SouthSideRyan]

Sports hernia, seems like you could take advantage of those pounding the outside corner.

[inari]

Uh, I thought Duncan was out for the year?

[squally1313]

It's Heddo!!!!

 

(Obscure Rookie of the year reference)

[KyHen]

The hell? I thought he was done for the year?

Cubs Win!

 

And with that win, the Cardinals are dead, dead, dead!

[Lockes Eye Scar]

lol Dempster's a bum

[BCVM22]

Oh snap! Demp was out for blood that inning. Love it.

 

CUBS WIN!

[mhuber92211]

YES! Good Job Dempster. He had great movement today

[Little Slide Rooter]

Atta boy Demp. This doesnt mean I trust him.

[Prior4CyYoung]

wow ok that was surprising. Guess ill leave dempster alone for a day or 2 lol.

[inari]

Can't believe we pulled that one out. Winning tonight too would be huge, but it's fine to split a double header.

[seanimal]

Yes
