Rich Hill is a sexy beast.

[Sammy Sofa]

4 k's and Hill probably has, what, 15 pitches so far?

 

Nevermind. 26. I must have falling into a black hole.

how many runners do we strand this inning. I say 1. In scoring position.

[soccer10k]

Seriously Lou? Bunting in the 1st??

 

Might as well have.

 

Given how he's hitting lately, bunting might be the right move no matter the inning.

 

I don't care how poorly somebody's hitting, unless you're a pitcher, there's no reason to sac bunt in the 1st inning.

 

I could kind of understand if you're trying to avoid the double play, but Soriano was on second so that wasn't going to happen anyway.

[Mizzou]

Impressive two innings by Hill.

[Smack]

Let's go offense. Don't waste this pitching!

[Schwarber Fan]

Jones HR next inning

[SouthSideRyan]

26 pitches for Rich.

[Sammy Sofa]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAH!

 

"Big Ron Santo fan there!"

[Fred Hornkohl]

DeRosa singled to right center field

[TruffleShuffle]

[SouthSideRyan]

[Sammy Sofa]

Do the Cubs strand more or less baserunners than yesterday?

[TruffleShuffle]

nice job astros... why not just forfeit the next 3 games and give the brewers the wins for free.

[soccer10k]

DP Jacque.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones struck out swinging

[Schwarber Fan]

[Smack]

Do the Cubs strand more or less baserunners than yesterday?

 

I think that would be pretty hard... but I wouldn't put it past them...

[TruffleShuffle]

nice ab by jock jones

[Lockes Eye Scar]

No chance on that one Jacque

[SouthSideRyan]

Bunting follies with Rich Hill up next.

[CubmanPi]

A Jones K is a good start to stranding the leadoff runner - you can do it, offense!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Kendall singled to left field , DeRosa to second

[Schwarber Fan]

Here comes the failure to bunt
