5/19 Cubs (Lilly) @ Astros (Moehler) 6:05 PM ESPN/CSN

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot doubled to down the left field line

[hotshot13422]

lester through 8. at this point, pitch count doesn't matter

113

 

I doubt any manager is going to take out a pitcher that has a no hitter going into the ninth because of a pitch count

[AFCubsFan]

That was a really good AB from Theriot :)

[17 Seconds]

You guys realize that when Lester comes out in the 9th they're going to cut to that game on ESPN, right? Good thing I have the mlb package.

[El Ridda]

Can we see Lee get out of this slump right here? How about something besides a ground out.

 

How about a weak flyout to right?

 

 

As long as it results in a double play.

[Laura]

geaux cubs!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 24-9 when they get at least 8 hits..... 3-8 when they don't

CUBS are 26-15 when they draw at least 2 walks.... 1-2 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammy Sofa]

Man, it is disheartening to see Lee's average drop like it has. He needs a couple days off.

 

But that's a good way to turn it around!

[Careless]

He finally got one of his grounders to find a hole

[genbar]

Nice.

[weis21]

[inari]

Insurance! Finally.

[ctcf]

What slump!

[AFCubsFan]

DLee snaps out of it. Awesome :)

[ToupeeOnFire]

Welcome back DLee!

[splintersag]

If you are watching the Red Sox gamecast, look at the Royals pitcher Yabuta.

 

His pic is strangley unsettling...

[Fred Hornkohl]

geaux cubs!

 

I can feel the grit all the way out here in Algonquin !! :wink:

Umm, it was a line drive.

[weis21]

At least he hit this one on the nose. I think a couple of days off and he'll be back in old Lee form by this weekend.

[CubsGM]

I will laugh if they cut into this game with the bases loaded, 0 outs.
