4/30: Brewers (Suppan) @ Cubs (Dempster), 7:05, WCIU, ESPN

[Mizzou]

Dempster gets in on the fun!

[SouthSideRyan]

If Pie's swing wasn't so long he wouldn't have taken ball 4 for strike 3.

So, is this one of the games where we score a bunch in the 1st and then let the opposing team come back, or is this a game we win easily?

 

I hope the latter. I usually am more worried when we're the road team and score all the runs in the first.

[E.J.]

Great first inning. Shut them down in the 2nd Demp and let's get the bats going again.

[CubsGM]

Not bad.

[chuckywang]

My god ... I hate umps with out calls that could knock out Lennox Lewis. Hey ump, the game isn't about your gesticulations! Calm down!

[BigSlick]

Just wanted to drop in and say that I'm happy the Cubs offense is back

[Keener98]

I swear if Dempster gives up this lead tonight, Im driving to Clark and Addison and whooping somebodys ass :ninja:

It's even worse when they come on pitches that were obvious balls.

I played a game in high school where the ump called strike three that literally lasted a whole minute. At least he didn't try to show up the kids or anything.

Woohoo!

 

I got the TVants stream to work just in time to see the first pitch I get to see get sent into left field by...

 

GEOVANY SOTO

 

How so? Do you have a link?

Now, let's hope Dempster does as well as he did in the first.

[CubsGM]

Rocky!

Anything anyone else might mock later will be banned, apparently?

 

What does that leave?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Does Pie play an exceptionally deep CF, or is it just me?

 

Not saying I have a problem with it, just curious.

Your house looks like crap. Just kidding. Wishing I didn't live in an apartment with annoying girls living below me.

When Prince Fielder is up to bat, yes.

Another strong inning from Dempster.
