6/21 White Sox (Contreras) at Cubs (Marquis) 12:05 WGN

[Fred Hornkohl]

Quentin walked

[Soul]

Up by 6. It's requisite Marmol time.

 

I'm a Lou defender most times, but this is just stupid.

 

What are you talking about? Clearly Carlos needs some work without a slim lead on the line after sucking to high heaven the last time out.

[UK1679666180]

That home plate ump has completely frustrated the Sox and taken some of their attention away from the game, both from the mound and the plate.

[Brock]

I bet Hawk over at CSN is going to spend the remainder of the game talking about how brilliant of a field general AJ is.

 

 

I switched over just to hear it and that was all he could talk about.

Missing: Carlos Marmols Control-$1,000,000 Reward.

Ron: I can see right now that he (Marmol) is feeling very strong.

 

Pat: Ball four to Carlos Quentin

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 16-8 when they allow fewer than 3 walks.... 31-19 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Careless]

if they're smart, they won't swing until marmol is pulled

[Flames24Rulz]

Missing: Carlos Marmols Right Arm-$1,000,000 Reward and Lou Piniella's head.

 

There you go.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Dye popped out to second base

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

DeRosa trying to scare me a little.

[Soul]

Holy crap Mark just scared the crap out of me.

[BigSlick]

Thats the first out Marmol has recorded in his last 5 batters

[OleMissCub]

"The Boy with the Thorn in his Side"

 

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[jaydee]

The WSI game is loving AJ for that play...but it seems they've forgotten they're down by six.

 

they arent too bright thats for sure

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Marmol throwing some strikes....now a little more consistency please.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Swisher struck out swinging

[BCVM22]

That's more like it.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

That's the Marmol slider I like to see!

[Soul]

There you go CM, right back on the horse!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Slider for strike one! Yes!

[Little Slide Rooter]

Now take care of "Captain Clutch" here and let Wuertz or someone take care of the underbelly of this lineup next inning.

[Jon]

Up by 6. It's requisite Marmol time.

 

I'm a Lou defender most times, but this is just stupid.

 

I don't think it's so bad. This is a good cushion to let Marmol get his confidence back in a game situation.

Yeah. He really struggled and could use an inning here to work on his command.

 

I love that 2-strike slider...

[illiniguy]

FINISH HIM

[BCVM22]

Now take care of "Captain Clutch" here and let Wuertz or someone take care of the underbelly of this lineup next inning.

 

Cubs are leading, Wuertz would load the bases with 0 out.
