4/10 Cubs (Hill) at Pirates (Morris), 6:05 PM CT, WGN

[bcl412]

Offense really needs to get something going against Matt freakin' Morris.

 

He was good once you know.

 

Hasn't been good for years. And once we leave town, he will proceed to suck donkey balls as per usual.

 

Yep, Cubs baseball

That sounds dangerous..........

[Mizzou]

Nice hit by Soto.

 

Now Theriot will ground out to second, followed by Pie striking out.

[nilodnayr]

So that means you can't dedicate one day out of a 200 day season to honor one of the most important people not only in the game of baseball but in the development of tolerance in our country? Are you serious?

I'm all for honoring the dude. Give every player in the majors jersey patches if you want to. I just don't see the point in retiring the number if it's going to be allowed to be worn. I know it's a different issue, but I'd be ticked if a Bull wore MJ's 23 no matter what the intent was.

 

Do you know who Jackie Robinson is?

[SABR Gamer]

God Soto is so good....

 

sweet Theriot...

[Post Count Padder]

Riot got a GRIT out

[inari]

Soto hits for power, takes walks, and is competent behind the plate. I like him.

[Soul]

Soto's like, awesome.

 

Yeah, too bad Theriot's like, not.

[Mizzou]

Yeah, the whole grit thing is [expletive].

 

Find new material.

[Post Count Padder]

This is sad. Matt Morris is beating us

[Butterscup1679666578]

And all of the sudden, Felix doesn't know how to swing.

[Flames24Rulz]

1 run through 4 innings. Great job, a-holes.

[nilodnayr]

The 42 thing doesn't bother me, but I'm not automatically going to consider a player a great guy cause he does it.

Who ever said anything to the contrary?

 

Large numbers of the mainstream baseball media one day a year.

 

Since when did anyone agree with what mainstream baseball media said (sorry Bruce)?

[Post Count Padder]

Pie likes to not swing with 2 strikes apparantly

[Mizzou]

And Pie takes a fastball right down the middle. Freaking idiot.

[Wolfgangbucks]

Another nice ab by Pie

[Soul]

Gonna be pretty hard to win this one giving Morris a 3 hitter break every 9 ABs.

Thank you for addressing the point. I know full well who Jackie is. He deserves honoring. But if you're retiring a number league-wide, retire it 365 days a year, not 364. You might as well let people wear it year-round anyway - that's what a lot of people were doing before Bud retired it.

[inari]

Too bad we didn't get Corey Patterson amirite?

[UMFan83]

This is sad. Matt Morris is beating us

 

Can't win them all. At least we won games against Roy Oswalt, Brandon Backe, Tom Gorzelanny, and Zach Duke in the past 4 games. If we lose a few to Chris Sampson and Matt Morris, meh.

[Outshined_One]

Good to see the offense has continued its wonderful job of outright sucking.

[Soul]

Loved the GW hit from Felix last night, but he looked very, very confused there.

[Post Count Padder]

I think Johnson is gonna start getting more at bats

[WilcoFan]

Yeah, the whole grit thing is [expletive].

 

Find new material.

 

Mark Prior throws towels!

[Post Count Padder]

And I called it. And Richie is gone
