LaRoche singles. Tie game.

 

This is going to get really, really, REALLY ugly.

[UMFan83]

This is Dusty Baker like here.

[BigSlick]

Lou continuing to manage poorly

[Flames24Rulz]

Well, we were due to lose to the Pirates sooner or later.

[Fred Hornkohl]

LaRoche singled to center field , Sanchez scored, McLouth to third, Bay to second

[erik316wttn]

Someone please tell the Pirates they're not the Cubs, and the Cubs they're not the Pirates.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Wuertz?

 

Ewww.

[inari]

Yeah, Z was significantly worse than his admittedly bad line would indicate.

[Keener98]

Marmol is the closer today guys, hes not being brought in right now.

[rawaction]

Don't know if it had anything to do with this crappy inning, but that's why you don't want your damn starting pitcher breaking bats on his leg for no good [expletive] reason.

[Schwarber Fan]

I blame Edmonds

[TysonCBulls423]

Zambrano doesn't like the Pirates too much.

[UMFan83]

Well, we were due to lose to the Pirates sooner or later.

 

Yeah but with Marquis on the mound tomorrow...we are going to lose the series.

[erik316wttn]

The Pirates will be up at least 7-4 before it's all done.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wuertz in to pitch for the CUBS

[laurens]

Well, we were due to lose to the Pirates sooner or later.

 

I thought it was going to be Marquis, not Z

[BigSlick]

I know when i'm in a high leverage situation where the game is in the balance I don't want to use my best reliever

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Curse of the bat break!

Marmol is the closer today guys, hes not being brought in right now.

So when we're down by 6, he's pitching the 9th?

[Magnetic Curses]

no matter how many times we beat these guys, it always seems like they make some sort of charge at one point or another.

[UMFan83]

Marmol is the closer today guys, hes not being brought in right now.

 

Did Lou actually say that?

[BigSlick]

Lol silly you gotta save hiim for 3 run leads in the 9th

 

HE'S THE CLOSER silly

[Careless]

At least Wuertz seems to have some command today

[Hairyducked Idiot]

*very* generous strike two call.
