Sam Fuld gets to be on base when the great Geovany Soto comes to the plate. He should feel fortunate.

[Vanilla Ice]

The perfect ending would be Fuld going deep.

 

You cant have everything.

[Coach C]

Boy this homeplate ump is really crappy today.

[E.J.]

I love that the ball at the ankles is now a strike.

[Omar]

Demp warming up...

[inari]

Why in the blue hell is Dempster going to pitch the 9th?

[Coach C]

I was really hoping he'd drop that...

[Bruno7481]

Again, I don't mind seeing Dempster come in and hopefully have a scoreless inning to get back on track.

[SouthSideRyan]

What the hell is Lou doing? Dempster just pitched yesterday.

*sighs and points to sig*

[Vanilla Ice]

What the hell is Lou doing? Dempster just pitched yesterday.

 

Plus, it is a non-save situation, bring in Wuertz, Piggy, or Gallagher for this inning.

 

I really do not understand this move.

Piggy hasn't pitched in ages. This is a perfect time for him.

[Mizzou]

Why is Dempster in there? Come on, Lou

[Smack]

Let's go boys. 3 more outs.

[Jazz]

1-2-3 plz Demp

[Coach C]

So let me get this figured out. If the Cubs win, their Magic # is 7, regardless of the Brewer win or loss?

[jjgman21]

this is really dumb. there's a good chance that the Cubs will need Marmol, Howry and Demp in a close game tomorrow. too bad we burnt them out in two blowouts.

[erik316wttn]

So let me get this figured out. If the Cubs win, their Magic # is 7, regardless of the Brewer win or loss?

 

Yes. The magic number is any combination of Cubs wins and Brewers losses needed for the Cubs to win the divisioin.

I am having a hard tme getting worked up or blaming Lou when the Cubs are 2 outs away from winning another one.

 

Why in the hell is the crowd doing the Tomohawk chop?

magic # is the number of wins by the first place team plus the number of losses by the second place team, so yes.

[Coach C]

So let me get this figured out. If the Cubs win, their Magic # is 7, regardless of the Brewer win or loss?

 

Yes. The magic number is any combination of Cubs wins and Brewers losses. When/if it reaches zero, the Cubs win the division.

 

So what happens if the Brewers lose this afternoon? Six?

[E.J.]
