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

[Schwarber Fan]

Why haven't they showed Marmol warming up yet?

[Outshined_One]

Theriot singles up the middle.

 

Soriano with another adventure on the basepaths that somehow turns out well for the Cubs.

 

4-2!

[InconspicuousZ28]

Another play at the plate.....we're back up to .500 in that area.

[Careless]

I'm shocked. As, I imagine, are the Arizona fans

[UK1679666180]

I would've held him, fwiw.

[splintersag]

In play, run(s)!!!

[NotSoSober]

Is it me or does Soriano look slow?

[UMFan83]

Geez, both times Soriano has scored, he's turned third very cautiously.

[hawkcub]

How did he get in there. It looked like he slowed up around 3rd.

[Schwarber Fan]

THERIOT!

 

4-2!

[Brett]

Ya know, ever since that one game where everyone was on Soriano for swinging at every pitch, he's done pretty well. I'm just gonna jump off that bandwagon now. He's turned it around.

 

Soriano has seen 15 pitches today.

 

He's swung at 11 of them.

 

I'm glad he's getting his BA back up, but his plate discipline still sucks.

 

Unfortunately that will always be the case with Soriano.

 

Apparently that's what makes him an ideal leadoff hitter.... :this:

[sneakypower]

give me a second

 

trying to think of a way to bash Theriot for what he just did

[Outshined_One]

Mark Grace just said "fanny."

 

I laughed.

And it will continue to suck. I don't care as long as he hits the ball.

[ctcf]

What the hell is going on here?

[El Ridda]

I hate to nit-pick, but why isn't theriot taking the extra base?????

[Iceblink]

Is Sori's leg sill that bad? He's running like a 40 year old.

 

(I suppose it's possible he is a 40 year old.)

[CubInOK]

I think every call at the plate has been right today.

It's never going to change.

[Careless]

Is it me or does Soriano look slow?

Yeah, he wasn't going very fast as he approached third, it seemed

[E.J.]

Is it me or does Soriano look slow?

 

He's running terribly. He looks like a robot while running. He doesn't look comfortable at all.

[UMFan83]

Is it me or does Soriano look slow?

 

Maybe still cautious about reaggrivating that injury.

[UMFan83]

I would've held him, fwiw.

 

With 1 out and Lee up and the lead, you bet.

[inari]

give me a second

Yeah yeah, we get that you like Theriot.

[rawaction]

Uk. We were wrong about Qualls. Doesn't have it today.
