If the Cubs keep telling themselves hes still Solomon Torres, they should be able to get a few runs here.

 

Somewhere, Sammy Sosa is cowering in fear.

[Soul]

Patience dammit. Patience.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome struck out swinging

[bukie]

Don't the Cubs usually kill Torres?

 

Yes, if you switch that and replace "Cubs" with "Sammy Sosa".

[erik316wttn]

WTG Kouske.

[BCVM22]

If wood could chop his finger off and start pitching again i'd like me some Go Dan or Shark in the rotation.....

 

He could probably get some pretty decent slider movement if he did that. Kerry "Four Fingers" Wood.

wtf koske

[weis21]

I don't understand putting the go ahead run on first. :-k

 

Oh well, c'mon Chad, get Hart!

 

Pretty simple...walking the lefty to get to the righty for the better matchup. Seems pretty sound to me with a guy like Fielder at the plate. And it worked. Good work by Gaudin.

I guess given the way Chad looked with the first two batters, I could buy that. It's just a little scary to put the go ahead run on the base paths intentionally that late in the game. However, if he's sticking with chad for more than one, then that makes it an easier decision.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Fukudome looking silly again.

[bukie]

Patience dammit. Patience.

 

He missed a strike on a 3-2 pitch. How do you have more patience in that AB?

[Butterscup1679666578]

Terrible.

[Soul]

Kosuke has no clue how to hit anymore.

[bcl412]

wtf koske

 

I'm not sure why he was trying to go the other way on an inside pitch

[erik316wttn]

Geez, Alf, what the hell were you swinging at there?

[17 Seconds]

Kosuke= Mediocre .750-.800 OPS Japanese hitter

[Flames24Rulz]

Kosuke has no clue how to hit anymore.

 

He hasn't since April.

[Soul]

Patience dammit. Patience.

 

He missed a strike on a 3-2 pitch. How do you have more patience in that AB?

 

I said this well before it was 3-2.

[erik316wttn]

Kosuke= Mediocre .750-.800 OPS Japanese hitter

 

Worth every penny, he is!

[SouthSideRyan]

 

Are we keeping score now? I can probably find 10 losses in this game thread alone. It's easy to be right once or twice when you predict the worst on everything.

 

Alright. I call your bluff. Find them.

 

I fold. You've been optimistic tonight.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano walked

[Hall7810]

Good fastballs seem to get him.

[killthegoat06]

hbp rj

[bcl412]

So Fukudome looks stupid striking out and Soriano walks. Weird.

[Billy_Buck]

Sori with the BB. I'll take that as a positive omen.
