well we've been flirtin with disaster for awhile now. i dont think we'll get out of it this time.

[Careless]

How many HR would they have hit off of Lilly in different circumstances/location?

[17 Seconds]

I'm glad Lilly is still in the game.

[CubsGM]

Thanks Lou.

[erik316wttn]

Can we stop with the doubles, please? One of those is going to score eventually, and I'm pretty sure Giles will.

 

Lilly shouldn't be in there anymore. Where's Marmol?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

.....

 

You had.....Eyre warming up, but you......left Lilly in at 108 pitches

[Yanksfan1523]

Darn, Giles gets a leadoff double.

[JoshiQ]

This does not look good.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Can't believe that he was able to go to third on that.

[UMFan83]

Our luck has to run out eventually right?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

If anyone can strand this, it's Marmol.

When you factor in the ballpark, Lilly hasn't had all that great of a game. A LOT of deep outs that would have been homers or would have banged off the wall in Wrigley.

[JoshiQ]

Little late on that move.

[CubsGM]

It's MARMOL TIME!

[bcl412]

If we're going to lose it might as well be in regulation, at least we won't waste the bullpen in extras that Lilly has spared most of the game.

I'm guessing that he figures since Lilly only pitched 3 innings in the last game he could be extended a bit.

[Yanksfan1523]

Marmoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!

 

Isn't Vance at this game?

[Careless]

wait, did we just encounter non-cookie cutter, high leverage Marmol use?

[Butterscup1679666578]

great job tonight lilly. did just what we needed from you. too bad the offense hasnt gotten going. hopefully marmol shuts it down.

 

ps again with the bad commercials. this cartoon esurance commercial with a weird song that goes "its ok to be yourself?" how does that sell anything?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

They better hope Kouzmanoff can drive in the run, because Greene might as well not bring a bat to the plate against Marmol

I can't tell if it's intentionallly trying to be bad or ironic.

[CubColtPacer]

Fontenot is in the game as well.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

If you time the fastball and swing through the zone, sometimes the ball hits the bat. That is the Padres' hope here.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Deep enough.

 

Ballgame.
