[vance_the_cubs_fan]

At least we're already into the Astros pen as well.

 

And this could be a big inning here!

In other news: Lance Berkman is stupid:

After one particularly jarring explosion, Houston's Lance Berkman threw off his metal chain and then sprinted off the field, refusing to risk electrocution.

 

Really?

 

He does realize that the little bit of metal is not going to do anything, right?

 

nice...apparently lance is a moron

I wouldn't worry at this point that Harden is injured. He put 2 pitches in the happy zone for Matsui and Blum otherwise we'd be talking about another nice start from him. His last few pitches prob missed as he gripped the ball harder trying to get outs prob peed off that he's given up that many runs and trying too hard. Lets stop trying to think like cubs fans all the time!!! 8-)

We are good and I really like it.

[Soul]

What the hell happened? I step away for a quick meeting and all hell breaks loose?

[PrimeTime]

Sometimes I think when the Cubs have a big lead they just dont care and decide to put together crappy at bats and get through the game asap..Now that theyre being threathned right here they finally start playing good again. Maybe sometimes they are just a little too confident

[98navigator]

FYI, Harden's ERA after this outing is 2.27

[inari]

Crap.

[David]

Pinch hit Edmonds for Reed, plz

[David]

Nevermind.

[illiniguy]

We are so losing this game.

[inari]

No way we win after that. None.

[bcl412]

This game isn't shaping up well.

[Keener98]

Yup we are so losing this game.

[swordsman]

Ok, Cubs, hold 'em here and then pile on the runs!!!

A promising start nets nothing. Edited August 5, 2008 by soccer10k

[javy knows my name]

well that was incredibly frustrating

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

double play

[Handlebar McSkullet]

I have seen this movie before. It sucks.

[Banedon]

Seems like Aramis has a lot of "first pitch-itis" lately. He's done it at least twice this game, though he does have the walk/rbi.

I have seen this movie before. It sucks.

I don't think any of us want to see it again.

[RedFlash]

THE CUBS WILL win this game.
