[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Lilly is looking like he still isn't worth a crap.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 11-2 when they score first in the game.... 5-6 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Lilly is looking like he still isn't worth a crap.

 

Certainly has been missing a lot.

Nieves singled to center field , Pena scored, Nieves to second on the throw

[illiniguy]

Jesus, Lilly is the one we should be skipping.

[ctcf]

Cue awkward excited announcing by Nats team.

[squally1313]

I wonder what Soriano and Pie would have done with those throws

[C.C.]

Not good!

[Flames24Rulz]

Ted Lilly sucks.

I wonder what Soriano and Pie would have done with those throws

 

I was thinking the same thing. Theres a good chance Johnson is out on a throw by Sori for that first runner.

[C.C.]

Our offense has to get busy. Don't want this kid to settle down any.

[C.C.]

This is the kind of game I don't feel good about.

With the way that the second one was hit, Pena should have been out on a good throw that makes it to the plate.

[UMFan83]

Why the hell does Ted Lilly throw an 0-2 pitch over the heart of the plate to a notoriously free swinging Pena? Seriously what the hell is he thinking?

 

We better not lose 2-3 to the worst team in baseball with our supposed top 3 pitchers throwing.

[ctcf]

His breathing is really annoying. He puffs air out of his mouth.

[illiniguy]

I don't get why pitchers who can't hit always go up to the plate hacking.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lilly struck out swinging

[Fred Hornkohl]

Johnson walked

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 14-6 when they draw at least 2 walks.... 0-2 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[UMFan83]

You know for the first time since he's been out, I am kinda missing Soriano. First on the plate at the plate last inning, I have no doubt the runner would have been gunned out. Now as far as power threats, other than Lee and Ramirez, who do we have? Fukudome has almost no power, DeRosa and Blanco have sporatic power, Cedeno the book is still out.
