God I hate Carlos Lee.

[Outshined_One]

That's what Edmonds should have done on the Tejada single.

[Andy]

Jimmy :)

[UMFan83]

Not a great start by Dempster, but I guess not a horrible one either.

[PrimeTime]

Hss throwing balls right down the middle..

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Nice catch by Edmonds...

 

I hope he didn't hurt himself.

Looks like I'm stuck watching WCIU. ESPN blacked out in Chicago. Please fix the audio already. :beg:

[bcruise]

Wow, Erstad is S-L-O-W. :lol:

I'm watching on WCIU and not having any problems with the audio.

[17 Seconds]

We better not get dominated by this joker again.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fontenot singled to center field

[killthegoat06]

Haha Matsui

[UMFan83]

This is Carlos Lee's OPS against teams he's played more than 60 games against in his career:

 

Cubs - .972

Rangers - .933

Mariners - .881

A's - .865

Royals - .854

Indians - .834

Twins - .795

Tigers - .789

Angels - .766

Cardinals - .654

 

Not only is he a Cub killer by hurting Cubs, but he's a Cub killer in being an easy out for the Cardinals.
