NLDS Gm 2: Cubs (Lilly) at D'Backs (Davis) 9 PM TBS, 720

[TruffleShuffle]

davis must be a great power pitcher, after all he has 5 k's in 2 innings

[CubColtPacer]

I don't think I've ever seen a player go quite so fast from awesome to terrible to awesome as Soriano does. Just a few days ago he was drilling every pitch that people put in there. Now he can't get anywhere near. I hope there's one more hot streak in him this year, and I hope the Cubs can hang on long enough to get to the next one, because when he is on he can really carry a team.

[Chocolate Milk]

Why are we all surprised that Soriano strikes out a lot? Catch any games this season?

[Soul]

I can't believe we have 7 more years of Soriano. He doesn't have a clue at the plate.

 

He's basically Sosa without the bulk.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 26-13 when they execute a sac bunt.... 59-64 when they don't

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[otis89]

How about a nice, quick inning, Lilly?

[Cubzfan64]

I hate the fact that I have to go in to work in the morning and listen to Red Sox fans snickering about how crappy our hitters are.

We're not even here without Soriano, you people need to get some freaking perspective.

[ElectricJ]

Isn't this so typical of the playoffs- Soriano, Lee, and Ramirez haven't done squat while Murton & Soto come thru.

Well....the way this series is going...the one's to the pitcher, Soriano and Aram should not count.

Agreed - we just need to surround him with some good hitters and it won't be a problem

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soto and Riot are the only ones with RBIs... it's time for the big guys to do something.

[Smack]

Mark Prior sighting.

Exactly what I was thinking. If he could catch another hot streak, he could practically carry the Cubs to the, well, you know.

[CubsBears29]

That is a K... even to the Cubs.

Fixed.

Yay leadoff runners!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Snyder singled to center field

[Handlebar McSkullet]

good lord peeps... soriano has had a bad start to the playoffs but let not act like he is the worst player ever. he was amazing in september

[CubsBears29]

Ted, hanging curves = not so much good!

[Guest]

Sorino has no chance unless Davis just hangs a curve at the belt. Then he'll just foul it off.

 

He got 2 good FBs the first AB, he took the first one and fouled back the second one. DOn't think he'll see too many more FBs from Davis..

Murton "came through"? LOL
