Well that was surreal, Soriano took 3 strikes down the middle in that at bat, all of which he could have crushed.

So after a game like last night, do the Cubs feel that they dont have to score tonight, or have they simply forgotten how?

[Yeti]

Awesome, let's bunt down 2.

 

?

 

That's a good time to bunt, you want to get on base.

i might agree if it were Pie at the dish, not so much with johnson

[17 Seconds]

and the astros are winning again. stupid nl central teams. this was supposed to be a down year for it.

 

Not worried about the Astros. The Cardinals, however, have started to worry me.

Chavez grounded out to short, 6-3

[Fred Hornkohl]

Gomez, pinch hitting for Marte, singled to left field

[Fred Hornkohl]

[Little Slide Rooter]

Better make something happen this inning. I dont think we've ever gotten anything off of Capps.

[killthegoat06]

So will this be a 1-2-3 inning or a fake rally?
