5/10 Snakes (Scherzer) @ Cubs(Dempster) 2:40PM Fox

[Outshined_One]

I'm not sure whether to applaud Soriano for heads up baserunning, or whether to criticize him for being a moron. I'm leaning towards the latter..

 

It can go either way... I think even tho Snyder drops it....it was gonna be close

 

From the replay, it looks like Soriano knocked the ball out of Snyder's mitt on the slide.

[salukifudd]

And the SB % keeps on lowering for Riot.

HAHAHAHAHA stupid Theriot

[Careless]

And theriot was actually safe there

[illiniguy]

At some point Lee is going to break Ryan's legs for stealing RBI chances from him. Newsflash idiot, when Lee is up you are in scoring position.

[TMan92]

Theriot doesn't steal bases very well.

[CubinNY]

Lou needs to tell Theriot that he cannot steal. If Lou is giving the steal sign Trammel should kick Lou in the backside.

[Outshined_One]

Soriano scored from first...on a single??

 

I read the explanation and I still don't get it.

 

Theriot hits a nice ball into RF. Soriano's running all the way. Upton bobbles the ball. Quade throws up the stop sign and Soriano ran right through it. Upton throws the ball home before Soriano gets there. Soriano slides head-first and it looks like Snyder dropped the ball or Soriano knocked the ball out of Snyder's hands.

Fans shouldn't try and catch line drives.

[Outshined_One]

The second time a ball has been hit in the LF corner...and no Bartman mention.

 

Thank God McCarver and Buck aren't calling this one.

Upton threw the ball in lazily to Ojeda. That is the key. Wehn he throws it that soft it bought Soriano enough time.

Ball dropped pretty far in front of Upton. Sori was heading to third. Upton had some trouble picking it up, so Soriano was already on 3rd. Upton kinda lobbed the ball back in towards the middle of the infield, and Sori took off.

 

With 2 outs in the inning already, I don't mind the play so much. The odds of us getting that run in anyways weren't great, and success guaranteed a run... so the breakeven point on plays like that is low enough that the attempt was worthwhile.

[Outshined_One]

Jackson grounds out 6-3.

 

1 out.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

With his seventh caught stealing in his team's 36 games, Theriot is on pace for 32, just off the pace for the NL record of 36.

[Outshined_One]

ATTN: Lou Piniella

 

This is baseball. Not football.

[ER Cub]

Almost, Upton through the ball into Auggie, kinda lobbed it in and Soriano then went home.

Uuummm, no. Upton threw to 2nd and when Sori saw him do that he took off for home. Ojeda threw home and Sori knocked the ball out of Snyder's glove as he slid, making him safe.

Ahhhhhhhhhh, I missed the relay. I thought Upton threw it straight home.

[Flames24Rulz]

Good play by Theriot. Two outs.

[Outshined_One]

Upton with a hotshot grounder which Theriot fields beautifully and throws him out.

 

2 out.

[bcruise]

RGI!

[Outshined_One]

Reynolds grounds out to Ramirez.

 

3 out.

 

Nice inning.

[Flames24Rulz]

Dempster's most efficient inning so far. Let's pad this lead.
