Johnson caught stealing, 2-5

[Brock]

What happened to not running just for the sake of running?

[BigSlick]

CUBS are 43-17 when they get a quality start.... 22-28 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

What is amazing is that they are only 6 games under in games where they don't get a quality start. Incredible.

 

This team is pretty remarkable

[Guest]

Why???

[Outshined_One]

Reed definitely would have been better off going in cleats-first on that one.

Not sure why Lou called that one (or why Johnson went, if he chose to do so on his own).

[Guest]

What a waste of a leadoff double...

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 55-4 when they lead at the end of 6 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Moss singled to right field

[Outshined_One]

Lilly going into the 7th?

 

...why?

[PrimeTime]

why is he still in??

[BigSlick]

We should probably take him out right....now

[Guest]

At the very least, pull him after the single.

[Fred Hornkohl]

It's always nice to wake up and see the Cubs winning.

 

.... and just why were you sleeping when the game is on ?? hmmmmm ??

 

I sorta, kinda forgot what time the game was on. :grin:

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah..... you're new bride kept you up all night..... I've heard it all before. :wink:

[cheapseats]

As everyone else is saying, Lilly should be out of the game.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Gomez lined out to center field

I wish that was the case. I was in Davis with a few friends for a going away party.

[Guest]

111 pitches.

[UMFan83]

Lilly's ERA will end the day at 4.36 if that runner doesn't score. If he can get it below 4 by the end of the year, I'd be impressed.
