Wait, he pulled Edmonds from the game? LOL.

double switch for howry...and then we didn't use him again

[CubsNSkers07]

I cannot believe Marmol was allowed to pitch so long in that trainwreck inning.

 

Howry threw 7 pitches I still think he should've stayed in, it makes no difference if your going to run marmols innings up or Howrys I guess you might as well do both Lou.

[third eye]

So if they actually do score this inning, it would be yet another example of the BS-ity of the pitcher "win" rule in baseball.

[tfarks]

Are the post game conferences just full of reporters who are afraid to ask Lou why he's so dumb?

[UMFan83]

Glad we have a 4 man bench for this game. Zambrano will eventually have to PH

[CubsGM]

Worthless at-bat

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ward, pinch hitting for Marmol, struck out swinging , 2-3

[Jon]

This is completely unbelievable. What was Lou thinking.

 

That's the problem. He wasn't thinking.

You're forgetting that Marshall can only face lefties when he's in the bullpen.

[Illini Iceman]

Wait, he pulled Edmonds from the game? LOL.

 

They were winning by 7 runs with 3 innings left.

[UMFan83]

Is the wind blowing in or out?

[C.C.]

Man that was brutal! Speechless.

[Omar]

When Marmol had a visit from O'Neal, couldn't Lou just put Marshall in and the Ump could've gave Marshall as much time as he needed?

[Handlebar McSkullet]

WTF happened. I am stuck in a bar review lecture. Why was Marmol in to begin with. Why was he left in?

And?

[OleMissCub]

You can all blame me. I jinxed them by putting on my Cubs "Believe" bracelet that I found in a drawer about an hour ago.

[Andy]

Thanks for taking the most electrifying relief pitcher we had and destroying him in three months, Lou. You freaking dumbass.

[CubsNSkers07]

Please someone hit a walk off, if we lose this game it will be disgusting because I just no the Cards and Brewers would both win tonight if it happened.

[SouthSideRyan]

How about a big ol F-YOU to the wrigley faithful.

 

Giving up the lead stinks.

 

Lou leaving marmol in stinks.

 

However, our team is in 1st place. They have the best record in the league. **** happens over the course of 162 games. Things could be worse. Things have been worse.

 

Far be it for me to think the cubs could score in the 9th and win the game.

 

If they were booing Lou, I'd fully endorse it.

I've got no problem with them booing a pitcher who has sucked for a month and gave up a 5 run lead in the 9th.

marshall had been ready for a long time before then

[E.J.]

Ugh. So close.

[Jon]

Sean was ready before that point.

[Outshined_One]

WTP!

You are correct.

[Fred Hornkohl]

DeRosa flied out to deep left center field
