6/10 Braves (Glavine) @ Cubs (Lilly) 7:05 WGN & WGN Radio

Whatever happened to day games?

I usually dislike daygames just because I'm in school (although not anymore), so I'd have to run to the library between classes to check the score. It was a bit of a hassle.

Whatever happened to day games?

 

Except for get away days, seems like most weekday games have been night games. I actually like it. I work during the day so I get to see more games. Friday day games are fine, although I miss the old 2:20 start on Fridays.

[Derwood]

i want more day games

[erik316wttn]

As I've said before, if baseball was meant to be played at night, there would be enough light in which to do so.

[aeaasie]

I miss daytime double headers

 

Ernie was right "Let's play two"

 

Hey Hey

[CubbieBum]

Is it game time yet. No? Ugh this sucks. Me hate waiting, me want cubs baseball now.

Except 75% of the nation wouldn't be able to watch

So...

Yeah, that really hurt the Cubs ability to build up a fan base the first 110 years of the franchise.

[Flames24Rulz]

According to ESPN 1000:

 

Soriano-LF

Theriot-SS

Lee-1B

Ramirez-3B

Soto-C

Fukudome-RF

DeRosa-2B

Johnson-CF

Lilly-P

 

No Chipper for the Braves, as expected.

[Soul]

No Chipper for the Braves, as expected.

 

That should help.

[PrimeTime]

I prefer night games...I don't know about you guys but most people in the U.S work daytime jobs like 7-3,8-4 , 9-5..So it makes it alot easier for people to watch at night

[BCVM22]

Cubs are great at home, Braves are terrible on the road, so logically this is a guaranteed loss for us, right?

[JWCUB]

Wind blowing in or out?

[pitchcs]

Wind blowing in or out?

 

Out to right as far as I can tell.

sure, and 7 local time is fine. but it's 8 local time here, and upwards of 10-10:30 when they're on the west coast. dont' get me started on post-season games

That's usually how it goes.

[Keener98]

Ok so predict the first HR Lilly gives up tonight?

[otis89]

He's not going to give up any! \:D/

[emoore]

Ok so predict the first HR Lilly gives up tonight?

 

Who's leading off?

[UMFan83]

I know I shouldn't be worried about the White Sox, but I really am starting to think that they are the best team in Chicago. Someone talk me off the cliff.

[TysonCBulls423]

There's no point UM. Nothing would change the eternal pessimist thinking :lol:

 

How was Vegas by the way?

You're the only one that can possibly do that.
