7/6 Cubs (Marshall) at Cards (Wellemeyer) 2:15 PM on TBS/CSN

[VanceJergins]

Really, Chip? The SI jinx? Thank God for Len and Bob.

 

The last day of Chip Caray doing Cubs games was a happy one for me. If his name was Chip Roberts, he would be cleaning toilets.

 

What if that meant he was Brian Robert's son? I'm sure he could score him some kind of job better than that.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Great at bat by Theriot, good job of wearing down Perez in his second inning of work. Remember that if Lee or Ramirez get big hits.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot struck out swinging

CUBS are 45-1 when they lead after 6 innings

 

I think we've blown more than one lead after 6, Fred.

 

Read it literally. 45-1 is correct.

 

Oh, I see. You mean when we have the lead *only* after the 6th inning, not the 6th and beyond.

[kujay]

^A lot of those numbers are going down today.

[BCVM22]

Attaboy, Lee!

[Fred Hornkohl]

D Lee doubled to right center field , Fukudome scored

[Guest]

LEE!

[kujay]

Beautiful, now A-Ram, do that.

[TMan92]

Lee is scalding the ball. Should have a lot more RBIs today.

[Soul]

Yay, we got our run back!

 

Take that Ludwick.

[TMan92]

A four run lead would be nice.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have outscored the Cardinals 5-1 in the 7th inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[kujay]

At least A-Ram ran that one out.

 

Not bad, as usual this weekend, could've been better.

[RedFlash]

I really like the MVLee more then the DPLee. So, it's good to see MVLee back.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Nice job Sean.

 

:clapping:

[bcl412]

My heart wouldn't be broken if we finished this one off.

[BCVM22]

Bullpen time. Hang on to your butts.

[Joe_Cub]

I really like the MVLee more then the DPLee. So, it's good to see MVLee back.

 

most definitely!

[cubscausestress]

can we get rid of dlee already? jesus. dude is horrible. all he does is ground in to double plays and play terrible defense.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Wonder what the gameplan is here. I say go with Cotts thru Ankiel, then Gallagher through at least Molina.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cotts in to pitch for the CUBS
