6/1 Rockies (Jiminez) @ Super Cubs (Gallagher) 1:20 WGN TV

[UMFan83]

My Glenallen Hill comparison still holds.

 

As awesome as Soriano is, Glenallen Hill has more awesomeness in his pinky finger than Soriano does in his whole body.

 

Uhhhhhhhhh...what?

 

Hill had an awesome homer, but Soriano is actually, y'know, useful.

 

 

Hey Hill wasn't worthless. .271/.321/.482 lifetime line isn't that shabby.

[Sosa21MVP]

I think thats only the second ball the Cubs have hit onto Waveland this year. Not positive though.

 

Am I crazy? Didn't that land in the back of the bleachers?

 

Yeah, and then it bounced onto the street after the fans failed to make the catch. Not a true Waveland Avenue shot but I'll take it. 8-)

[Outshined_One]

HOT DOGS!

Whoops! I didn't see it clearly enough I guess.

Eyre still struggling to find that outside corner.

What were his Cubs' numbers?

[UMFan83]

Yeah so I know the batter has a better shot to do good things when the ball ends up in the strike zone, but you might want to place the ball into that zone a few times Eyre.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Eyre's goatee is impressive.

 

Bring Howry in.

[inari]

Get Eyre out of there as quickly as possible. He's going to get rocked unless the umpire saves him like last inning. He doesn't have anything today.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Leadoff batters reaching base make bunnies cry.

What were his Cubs' numbers?

 

Almost positive they were better than his career numbers as a whole, but I am not sure how I can get those splits. Anyone know?

[CubsGM]

I remember when Hill couldn't put a bunt down last year. I think that was him.

I'm not calculating it, but here:

Look at his SLG in 93 with us!

[erik316wttn]

Howry coming in now.

[TMan92]

No more Scott Eyre please.

[UMFan83]

That play scared me for a second until I realized that Soriano plays LF not RF

[Outshined_One]

They're resurrecting 90210?

 

Seriously?

[islandcub]

Oh boy...gameday says that ball was hit pretty well.

[Master Shake]

1 Run, 1 hit, no Eyre

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another pun Ive been waiting to use.

[Careless]

Oh boy...gameday says that ball was hit pretty well.

It's much less worrying when you can see Helton throw his bat away in disgust

If there were a way to describe that in Gameday, it would be hilarious. Like some stick figure at the plate throwing a fit.

[Outshined_One]

I think this ump would call a ball in the dirt a strike.

If only I could. The TV gods chose not to make my TV be Extra Innings-compatible.

Cue Jim Edmonds strike 3 jokes.

[erik316wttn]

They're resurrecting 90210?

 

Seriously?

 

Yeah. This is pretty old news, too.

 

One of the original cast is going to be in the new series, too.
