(basically my reaction)

I was keeping up with the score through my Fantasy Baseball page. Saw it was a blowout and gave up keeping track and watched some Undeclared.

 

I just checked it.

 

No. Freaking. Way.

[RynoRules]

This just in - this team is pretty good.

[Outshined_One]

I gave up when it was 9-1. I decided to check and see how things were going a little while later and the score was 9-6 in the 7th.

 

Wow, I'm glad I checked in on this game. What a rush!

[hawkeyecub]

That was just absurd.

i did exactly that...

 

beautiful and glorious day indeed

Why were Soto and Lee taken out?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Why were Soto and Lee taken out?

because the Rockies were up by 42, and it didn't look like the day was going to get any better

[Outshined_One]

Why were Soto and Lee taken out?

 

The Cubs were getting killed 9-1 at that point and both needed the rest.

 

It turned out to be the right move, weirdly enough.

I took a shower during the top and some of the bottom of the seventh. When I got out I told myself that if it was 6-9 we would have a chance. I turn on my monitor and it's 6-9 and a few seconds later Edmonds makes it 8-9. I really love this team. I've never been as excited about the cubs as I am right now.

For those of us unlucky to have to be working (and in a region that does not offer Comcast) can someone recap the game thread?

Boo, boo, boo, o yay a run, more boo, omg, omg, omg. Go Cubs Go!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Aaron Cook makes us nervous.

 

Lilly is horrible, we need a No. 2 starter at the deadline.

 

Oh, cute, fake rally.

 

Hey, this is getting cool. If Edmonds comes through, I might not hate him.

 

OMG!!!!! WOW!!!!!

 

Marmol makes Pedro Martinez in his prime look like Ryan O'Malley.

 

We should leave Marmol for the ninth.

 

If it's Wood, we'll be okay if he doesn't put the leadoff man on.

 

Oh crud.

 

Whew.

 

Cubs win!

I had to listen on 850 KOA in Denver. Call for DeRo HR: "Fly ball to left, you never know with the wind. Gone."

My reaction: Gone. CUBS take the lead 10-9! YEA!

Dad: :laughs:

Insanity reigns. Wrigley must have been amazing after DeRo's homer.

I would have given anything to be there. I immediately got goose bumps (amidst running wild up and down the stairs). Does anyone know if any posters were there?

A few people were talking about being worried about the weather before the game, since they had tickets. We should be hearing back from them once they sober up.

I would be about three sheets to the wind by now if I was there. Heck, as it is I made a beeline for a tall boy when Helton popped out.

Hell yeah. Gotta hear those radio calls. There should be more than one gem from today.
