NLDS: Gm 1 Cubs (Z!) @ DBacks (Webb), 9:07pm, TBS, WGN Radio

[Brian]

swinging early is good against Webb, people.

STOP SWINGING ON THE FIRST PITCH!

 

I dont agree with this at all. Not against Webb.

 

I agree but that pitch wasn't the one for Theriot to swing at.

[DiamondMind]

Ok...So Riot and Fonzie need a better approach....first pitch swinging against this guy is not the way to go....

 

Yes it is

[Smack]

quick moving game

 

Yes, it is. I've got my work cut out for me to finish a 12 pack by the time the game is over.

Yeah, Webb is someone who you need to swing at th first pitch more often than not.

 

Unless it's out of the zone of course.

 

Alot of frickin' ground balls, this could be a long night offensively

CUBS are setting up Zambrano to knock in the first CUBS run next inning !!!

You're going up there with a plan and that's what I'd do too.

If it's in the zone and you can handle it, swing at it. Soriano hits ridiculously well when he's first pitch swinging. I didn't like the pitch Theriot swung at though.

Webb wants you to swing at his early sinkers. Why would doing what he wants be a good thing?

[ElectricJ]

Did the Cubs lose a bet and ended up with Darling doing the color?

 

I wish he would have been eliminated along with the Mets.

 

The funny thing is, had the Mets clinched, he would be doing for radio for them and not working for TBS. We would've had Brenly in this series instead.

 

Yeah, there was no winning with that combo. Seeing how I can't stand the Mets, Darling isn't the worst thing in the world. Hawk Harrelson is.

It would have been better if they set Zambrano up to knock in the first three Cubs runs this inning. :wink:

[CubsBears29]

If Z can find the zone more times than not, with his stuff tonight, he's gonna pwn these garden snakes!!!

 

Oh, and pitch 2 was a K!!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Reynolds grounded out to second, 4-3

[Brian]

Reynolds didn't look like he had a chance...

[Post Count Padder]

Ok, my bad. I'm just used to (and prefer) patience.

[DiamondMind]

This game will be one of adjustments. Cubs have to stay aggressive against Webb both in the batters box and on the bases. Although if Webb realizes the Cubs are playing him aggressively, he may start throwing sliders and junk first pitch and we'll have to re-adjust to that. But for right now Id stay aggressive and look for that 1st pitch fastball.

[Roast]

Good, one down. Lets go.

[Post Count Padder]

1 down
