5/15 - Fathers (Maddux) @ Cubs (Dempster) 1:20PM CSN & 720

[Garage Party]

Dempster has some good impressions, but this impression of C. Zambrano is pretty good.

 

wow, really trying hard with that joke.

I liked that joke.

What was the crowd's reception when Edmonds came up to bat?

Mostly boos with some cheers when he took the field, faint applause for his first at-bat.

It sounded like quite a bit of applause before his fist at bat to me.

[Outshined_One]

the Cubs have 10 hits in 4+ innings but only 1 run.

 

It's the magic of Greg Maddux.

[Bull]

NL pitchers as a whole:

 

.148 .187 .192

 

Cubs pitchers (before today):

 

.186 .195 .279

 

Any position where you can get an extra 95 points of OPS is a good position in your lineup.

 

hmm gotta figure milwaukee and St louis' pitchers hitting in the 8 spot if ou're gonna make that statement.

What was the crowd's reception when Edmonds came up to bat?

 

90% cheers.

 

And some fans were standing and cheering.

How in the world do people keep throwing fastballs down the middle to Soriano on the first pitch?

 

Soriano is an awful matchup for Maddux, because Soriano can hit strikes, and Maddux doesn't often waste pitches.

[inari]

It's about time we started capitalizing on these chances.

[PrimeTime]

Atleast scrappy got the run in

That wasn't the worst possible outcome from Theriot. Got a run in. I'll take it.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

let's see if Lee can not suck this time

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Lee should sac bunt to get two in scoring position for ramirez.

Honestly, the gay jokes are tiring. Can we put a stop to them now?

[nick23]

Actually that was a good outcome.

[bcl412]

[Banedon]

I'm gonna be happy with a walk from D-Lee right now.

[Andy]

Lee's back!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This is *so* my favorite Cubs team ever.

[Careless]

Soriano was running like he was a bit gimpy, wasn't he?

[Garage Party]
