Re: 04/09 CUBS (Dempster) @ Pittsburgh (Duke) 6:05pm, CSN+

Whoever pitches tomorrow, I hope he twirls a complete game shutout.

 

Don't kid yourself, next one's gonna go 18 innings! Yes sah, let's play two.

Last year, Marquis delivered a CGSO against the Pirates at a time when the Cubs bullpen was taxed.

I'm a huge fan of the "I's."

Dear Fred,

 

Did you have a good view of Felix's deep foul ball? From my seat on the couch I could have sworn the ball passed behind the foul pole, making it a home run.

 

Thanks

Yeah, it clearly looked like a HR. Either way Felix got the GW hit.

We were sitting down the 3rd base line, not really the best view for that ball. We all thought it was fair, too.

I was listening on the radio. Was the TV replay inconclusive or something?

Yeti looks exactly like I'd expect him to look.

There was no doubt by anybody involved, Len, Felix, etc. They didn't do much of a replay, but when Laroche hit his homer (I think it was him) to RF, you could tell it landed much further to fair side of the pole.

[UMFan83]

I think it was pretty obvious that the ball disappeared behind the foul pole.

Meaning you think it was a HR?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I rewatched Pie's foul ball about twenty times, and while it looks like a homerun, the angle on the shot makes it very hard to tell.

The best part is this photo was probably taken in the third inning.

I miss that view. One of the best in baseball.

 

See you guys tomorrow!

And Alou caught that foul ball too. :wink:
