Nice AB Theriot just beautiful.

He struck out with grit though

Blanco flied out to left field

[CubsGM]

Damn you WGN camera

[Guest]

That camera shot really sucked. The way they were tracking that ball I thought it was long gone.

[Vanilla Ice]

Time for a bananabomb

[Flames24Rulz]

Well we're sure going to make Houston pay for that blunder in the outfield, aren't we?

[weis21]

He struck out with grit though

Wasn't really his fault though, he had to get a new bat. Probably didn't have enough pine tar for his liking.

[Vanilla Ice]

Damn you WGN camera

 

they seem to be a little off this year compared to last year

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Theriot can't even make weak contact anymore, what's the deal

[Vanilla Ice]

Time for a bananabomb

 

just kidding

Towels struck out swinging

[Vanilla Ice]

Towels struck out swinging

I thought Prior played for the Padres

 

:D

[Warpticon]

And now Blanco is gunning people out. Do you think Soriano, Ramirez, Fukudome, Soto and Blanco just torture Theriot on how crappy his arm is?

 

Pie too.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Backe grounded out to the pitcher, 1-3

Soriano is gonna rope a line drive base hit here, I can feel it.

[BigSlick]

Soriano is gonna rope a line drive base hit here, I can feel it.

Could he rope a homer? That'd be awesome.
