4/7 Cubs (Lilly) at Pirates (Gorzelanny), 12:30 PM CT, WGN

Anybody else think Lee beat that?

[CuseCubFan69]

I want to see that first baseman pick that ball up again.

[Guest]

Yay for fake Cub rallies!

Len + Bob underwater > having to listen to Santo moan and groan.

 

Hughes is so much better than Kasper it's not even funny. And Santo is great for comedic effect. I'd much rather listen to that booth than listen to Kasper and Brenly sounding like they're underwater.

 

 

Not denying that Hughes is better than Kasper, but Santo is so annoying it's unbelievable. I love Ron, but as a commentator, I'd rather not listen to him. Len and Bob are a great duo.

 

 

And I think we just got screwed. That was an awful DP attempt

[Garage Party]

Hughes drives me nuts when he gets excited like that

And you prefer pubescent squeaks?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Did Mientkiewicz drop the ball?

[BigSlick]

Ugggggghhhhhhh I knew it was going to happen and yet I still hated it when it did.

 

At least we made Gorzellany work for it.

[erik316wttn]

Ramirez loves to kill rallys.

 

I hope he gets hot today. Even a fly ball with any distance would have scored Johnson and put us in the lead. Dangit.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Yay for fake Cub rallies!

 

IMO, it's not a rally if it's before the 7th inning.

[CuseCubFan69]

24 pitch inning, let's keep that going at the very least. Man, ARam is slow.

[inari]

That was more than a little annoying.

[CubmanPi]

Ugh. Fix the audio already. This is brutal.

[erik316wttn]

Yeah, if there was any silver lining to that inning, it's that.

 

I just hope they don't start getting anxious if there's no score in about the 5th or 6th inning and start swinging at crap.

That's weird.

Blasphemer.

 

I listen to Hughes and Santo on 30 second delay and watch the game with the sound off.

[Fred Hornkohl]

McLouth singled to right center field

I dunno, I consider rallies as attempts to come from behind late in the game.

[javy knows my name]

Yay for fake Cub rallies!

Or when you aren't coming from behind.

[erik316wttn]

Come on, Ted. Don't regress to the yutz you were in the AL.

[CuseCubFan69]

Has Lee been playing off the runner at first all year?

[Butterscup1679666578]

Nice!

[CubmanPi]

Audio getting even farther from sync'd.

 

Nice pickoff!!

[Flames24Rulz]

Pickoffs are cool.

McLouth cuaght stealing, 1-3-6
