Ugh, lets hope Jose doesn't settle down now. Golden opportunity there.

Fontenot just isn't a big leaguer.

[Butterscup1679666578]

hahaha i hate fontenot so much. that's all he does is hit lazy flyouts to center. what a waste.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Call me crazy, but something tells me this wont end up a 2-1 ballgame.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

On the bright side, 23 pitches for Contreras.

[UMFan83]

23 pitches for Contreras in the 1st vs. 18 for Marquis

[CubinNY]

Is Marquis hitting his spots?

[BigSlick]

I like how the Sox will hack at our pitches as opposed to those dastardly Rays who refused to swing at balls outside of the zone

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hoffpauir would have had that one

[illiniguy]

Nice play Eric.

[Butterscup1679666578]

our left fielders cant catch

[UMFan83]

Soriano could have done that

[Fred Hornkohl]

Crede struck out swinging

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Attention Eric Patterson: foul balls from right handed hitters will tail back toward you. Also, you have sunglasses on your head.

I'm surprised Bob didn't notice that.

FWIW, next week's series at the Cell will be broadcasting misery for many. Anyone without access to Comcast Chicago will have to listen to Hawk/DJ for the Friday game since they're doing the WGN broadcast. Saturday's game is on FOX and Sunday is a night game on ESPN.

 

To sum up....

 

Friday... Hawk and DJ for some

Saturday... Buck and McCarver (I'm guessing)

Sunday... Miller and Morgan

 

Brutal!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Crede struck out swinging

 

 

according to some Sox fans, he's better than Ramirez!

[Sammy Sofa]

A deep double, dicey defensive plays...it's like Sori is back!

[OleMissCub]

Those "touch of gray" commercials are just getting harder and harder to watch.

 

When I'm 60, I definitely envision myself

 

- Drinking beer out of plastic cups on the beach with a gaggle of other old crones

- Playing a Fender Strat in a club with a hot blonde on my arm

- Fist pounding with a bunch of other 60 year olds after going surfing

- Shooting hoops

- Throwing peace signs

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wise walked

[Butterscup1679666578]

You just walked a career .199 hitter.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS already have taken more BB's today than all day yesterday.

 

 

Go CUBS !!
