[rawaction]

Yes, Cubs are behind! Plan set in place!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Dempster doubled to left center field , Fukudome scored

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Dempster just about had a legit rule-book double. Just missed the basket on the bounce.

[Schwarber Fan]

Well, it was a promising inning

 

EDIT: LOL! DEMPSTER!

I expected that to be caught like the first inning...very nice, wind.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 27-19 when they hit at least 1 double.... 3-2 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BleacherBadger]

SORIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiii

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano homered to right center field , Dempster scored

[SABR Gamer]

Soriano 2-run home run.

[genbar]

Yay Sori!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The Cubs are playing the wind something fierce the last two days. Home-field advantage.

Go CUBS !!

 

Only 5 games without a double?

[Jon]

I'm not sure what's worse, the camera-work on that one or the center fielder playing 50 feet into the outfield against Soriano.

Eh, they had a homer by Omar Quintalinia. They can't bitch too much about the wind.

[bcruise]

Yes, Cubs are behind! Plan set in place!

Indeed.

 

That was the definition of "wind-blown" :lol:

[Sammy Sofa]

Ha-haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

 

Wind.

[shnsajax]

Yeah, why was Taveras playing a softball CF?

And Ianetta's homer yesterday.

The Rockies also have more left-handed hitters today. The wind is either going to hurt balls hit to left or have no effect.

Rockies fans can complain if Theriot and Johnson hit homers today.

I'm not complaining. It's pretty clear they are intentionally trying to go to right today against Rusch.

[BleacherBadger]

I would hate to be a Rockies fan.

 

Yesterday: Hey, we're up by 8. We can get a win.

Today: Nice 2 run lead early in the game.
