6/2 Super Cubs (Z!) @ Padres (Baek) 9:05 pm CSN/WGN Radio

[UMFan83]

I honestly thought this offense would do nothing and we would lose like 6-1 or something.

 

I guess I dipped back into pre-2008 Cubs fan thinking

[inari]

I'm stunned Soriano didn't swing at strike two there.

[BigSlick]

Back end of this lineup is baaaaaad

 

Bad?

 

DeRosa I believe is hitting over .300, Edmonds is heating up big time, and Blanco is the backup catcher.

Yes that was why i was talking about this specific lineup

 

But Z is making me look silly

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cubs record when the umps screw us?

 

I keep looking and looking, but I never find that stat in the box score.

[splintersag]

On a side note, this OT period between Detroit and Pittsburgh is awesome.

 

Yeah, I love sports. I'm watching hockey on the TV, and watching baseball on the computer.

 

I think the Cubs tie it soon. It seems like we are hitting the ball hard, and eventually a ball will sneak into PETCO's cavernous outfield.

 

Lol, was I right? I love this ballpark now. For now.

[CubsGM]

Z>Soriano

[BCVM22]

CUBS are 4-0 when they hit at least 1 triple...

 

Sweet, we're all set then. Dunno what I was worried about.

C'mon Pens, score on commercial so that I don't have to worry about flipping next inning.

[mul21]

It does occasionally become annoying to watch Soriano roll over outside pitches and ground out to the left side.

They really should hit more triples, geez.

[CubsGM]

Score a goal Pittsburgh

[weis21]

quick inning please Z

[splintersag]

For those people not watching hockey, we're not telling the Pittsburgh Pirates to score a "goal". :lol: Edited June 3, 2008 by splintersag

[bcl412]

Score a goal Pittsburgh

 

I would love Pittsburgh if they took down two Chicago rivals in one day.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Barrett called out on strikes

[inari]

Ick. Z still looks bad.

 

Barrett should've walked right there.

[CubsGM]

Sit down Michael.

[chuckywang]

Z punches out Barrett ... hehehe

[17 Seconds]

This entire umpiring crew is atrocious.

[bcl412]

Z if more fired up than usual tonight. Is that bad or good?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Greene grounded out to third, 5-3

Z if more fired up than usual tonight. Is that bad or good?

Bad for Lou when he inevitably has to pull him in an inning or two. I really don't want to see him get over 100 pitches tonight.

[splintersag]

Z if more fired up than usual tonight. Is that bad or good?

 

I mean, he has had his emotions controlled for this year for the most part. And this is one of his best starts, so, I'd say it's bad. But not that bad.

[UMFan83]

Greene grounded out to third, 5-3

 

Not so tough now that you're back in your fly ball hell are ya Khalil?
