4/5 Astros (Oswalt) at The Losers (Marquis), Noon CT, CSN

[Little Slide Rooter]

Back to back jacks time.

[Outshined_One]

I would avoid the stock market all together right now.

 

Ah come on. A little insolvency here and there isn't that big of a deal!

[weis21]

WHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

 

Lee's got that power stroke back! :hello:

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ramirez flied out to center field

[weis21]

Has Ramirez not swung at the first pitch once this year?

[imb]

This is a prime example of why people should shut the F up about players "not showing up" four games into a season.

 

Lee is 2-for-2 today, and his average is now .300. Two hits is all it took.

[Butterscup1679666578]

I think it's safe to say that Derrek Lee has realized the season has begun.

[Guest]

The Cubs have now homered in every game this year!

[Outshined_One]

Carlos Lee nearly overran that.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Don't worry, everyone. Marqueef will give the lead right back in this inning.

Has Ramirez not swung at the first pitch once this year?

 

IDK, but I believe he has drawn a few walks.

Hendry was up late last night putting the final touches on his memo.

 

Carlos Lee plays left field with the grace of a refrigerator.

[Fred Hornkohl]

C Lee homered to left center field

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Don't worry, everyone. Marqueef will give the lead right back in this inning.

 

 

Did I not call this?

[Outshined_One]

Carlos Lee plays left field with the grace of a refrigerator.

 

Niiiiiiiiiiiice.

 

That was quick.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Tejada grounded out to second, 4-3

[UMFan83]

That would have been out on most days. No excuses there Marquis

[weis21]

Carlos Lee plays left field with the grace of a refrigerator.

 

Niiiiiiiiiiiice.

 

That was quick.

note to self: don't pick on carlos

[C.C.]

Blah!

[UMFan83]

We've been getting some bad breaks in this game.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wigginton grounded an IF single to third base

[UMFan83]

I love how last year's excuse was "it's so cold", and this years excuse appears to be "we aren't used to the field yet"

 

The other teams seem to be playing ok in the cold and on the new field...

Berkman is out of the game with neck spasms.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Nifty DP, but once again we're in the hole.
