04/22 NY Mets (Figueroa) @ CUBS (Lilly) 1:20pm, CSN TV

[CuseCubFan69]

Here comes an HR by Fuku.

[hotshot13422]

ludwick k's. bottom 7th, 8-7 mil

[CuseCubFan69]

Or a 4 pitch walk. 1st and 2nd 1 out.

[PrimeTime]

Fukudome is freaking awsome

[Derwood]

i am so confused by all these walks. it's like we've been dropped into some alternate Cubs dimension

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Nelson fears the Fukudome

[illiniguy]

Good lord, I don't think he is solely responsible for the whole team, but man has fukudome been great or what? It is so refreshing.

[hotshot13422]

Fukudome is freaking awsome

He ONLY took 4 pitches though, where's that patience??

[CuseCubFan69]

Pagan makes every play a mystery. 2 down. 1st and thrid

[hotshot13422]

Derosa's out to RF

[Andy]

Sets up nicely for another big Ronny hit.

[Bruce Miles]

No kidding. Me too. I told Hendry today that he'll have the Baseball Prospectus writers on his speed dial pretty soon. This is culture shock.

[CuseCubFan69]

I'd go slider away than fastball in to Ronny.

[BleacherBadger]

His P/PA went down after walking...

[hotshot13422]

Btw, Angel Hernandez is the 3rd base ump today. How is he going to find a way to screw up the cubs?

Say a runner left early on a tag?

Check swings called strikes?

[YearofDaCubs]

Cedeno this year seems to be more patient and selective out there. He's looked very good.

Does Jim even know walks are a good thing?

[hotshot13422]

Ronny flies out, inning over

[Andy]

No hits but they still made him work. Good stuff.

 

Lilly will probably start the 6th whether it's smart or not.

I reminded him today and yesterday. He said, "Anything to keep you happy, Bruce." (He was smiling when he said it.)

[CuseCubFan69]

Lilly will probably start the 6th whether it's smart or not.

 

I'd take my chance in the 6th.

 

One out...6-3

He does

[Hairyducked Idiot]

*eh* I like Wuertz and Howry, but neither is on right now. I guess maybe Lieber or Marshall, but I don't mind squeezing one more inning out of Lilly.

Nice. Keep up the good work.

Hendry: Baseball Propectus? Sorry, I don't buy new issues.
