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

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Runner on first, no outs, down one in the seventh.

 

Leverage index 3.03.

 

It really, physically hurts to see the Cubs choosing to use an inferior player, then choosing to try to lower their odds of scoring.

So our last few games:

 

Runs scored:

3

3

9

1*

 

Averages out to 3.1111 per game

 

*So far, obviously there are still 3 innings left.

[CubsGM]

That was DeRosa...

[sneakypower]

Missed opportunities and BS calls have summed up the Cubs losses in 08 so far.

 

BS calls? Explain.

 

Maybe he's talking about calls Lou Piniella makes, like who to start at CF and SS?

my gamecast isnt working well

 

who "drove in" our only run?

Bunt.

[Outshined_One]

Wait, apparently that was DeRosa who singled. Fox never said who singled.

 

Johnson sacrifices him over.

[UMFan83]

Yay for giving up outs!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Trailing by one and needing two to win, the Cubs intentionally lower their odds of scoring either one or two.

Nobody, Soriano scored on a weird play

It's not as if Johnson was going to get a hit anyway.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

who "drove in" our only run?

 

Same guy who has used up 3 outs and been subpar in the field?

[inari]

Ward walk and a Soriano DP, eh?

[erik316wttn]

Ward ties it!

[Outshined_One]

Ward singles!

 

Tie game!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Ward = clutchiness.

[inari]

That's the Daryle Ward we know and love!

[CubInOK]

TIE GAME!!!

[UMFan83]

Bout time Ward!

[Flames24Rulz]

Ward delivers! Tie game.

The bad decision wasn't bunting, it was having Johnson in there in the first place, who is bad vs. RHPs and figured to be completely overwhelmed by Qualls.

[UK1679666180]

Brand new ballgame. Nice job by Ward.

[hawkcub]

Thank you DWard :yahoo:
