9/19 - Reds (Shearn) vs. Suckfest (Lilly) - WCIU/ESPN - 7:05

I was thinking he tore up his rib cage winding up on the throw. Looks more like a limp though.

[UMFan83]

If we blow this opportunity I'm going to cry

[Andy]

Screw Floyd, DWard should bat here.

[sherwood921]

What happened to Griff?

[weatherdood]

Hopefully, Floyd will hit it hard and in the air to score Theriot.

 

How about hit it hard, in the air, enough to score Theriot, Lee, and Floyd? :D

[Mizzou]

I wish Ramirez was hitting here rather than Cliff. This has DP written all over it.

 

Good to see Junior walking off on his own. God I hate to see him get injured again.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I really do feel for Griff, as hes one of the class act in the game, however you need that killer instinct in a situation like this, and Theriot should have been sent. Its not like holding him at 3rd makes Griff better.

[Post Count Padder]

Man, that's unfortunate, but the story of his career.

 

Imagine his numbers if he wasn't always hurt. It's a damn shame

[Exile on Waveland]

Glad we won't have to face Griffey any more this year, but sucks that he's hurt. He always seemed like a classy guy to me and I don't wish him ill.

 

It's hard not to like, and root for, him.

[CubsNSkers07]

can't believe so many things can happen to such a great guy like griffey i really hope he's alright although it didnt look good

[erik316wttn]

He held out most of the season. Sucks so bad for him. I really wish baseball would have gotten to see this guy play a full and healthy career.

 

Just imagine the stats he and Mickey Mantle would have put up had they both not been so injury prone.

[Keener98]

Agreed hes probably the most talented player in my lifetime.

[genbar]

Man, I hate to see this from Griffey. I really like that guy.

 

Me too. He's always been one of my favorites.

[da bears]

this is not good. floyd has hit two really weak pop ups and a double play i think. dammit to hell floyd you better get it done.

[Sammy Sofa]

Who said Theriot sucks now?

 

Me.

 

Damn, poor Junior. I always feel sad when he gets hurt.

 

I think the Cubs are gonna hit another DP out of sympathy.

[SouthSideRyan]

Murton into face Stanton.

[Post Count Padder]

In come Buck Coats and Mike Stanton

[Omar]

That's what... The third time Griffey has been injured against the Cubs?

[E.J.]

Floyd needs to be pinch-hit for here.

[Mizzou]

Alright, you gotta pinch hit with Murton here.

[Anomalied]

Come on Howdy Doody, just get one in the air.

Riot was already stopped before anyone realized Griff was hurt, and it was too late to send him when they realized what happened. I really don't think they held him out of respect for Griffey's injury.

[soccer10k]

Matt Murton had better be PHing here.

[Keener98]

How was Quade supposed to know Griff was going to blow out his groin on that?

[UMFan83]

Sure wish Ramirz was up next
