8/8 Cardinals (Looper) @ Cubs (Lilly) - 1:20 CSN

Nice.

I just don't understand how Lou allows Howry to pitch because eventually he will come around when he hasn't really been willing to do that with others in the past like Eyre or Wuertz for example. I am not saying that he necessarily should have done so with these other guys, but his inconsistency is what has perplexed me.

Pleasac talks more than my 5 year old nephew.

Gameday:

 

Fastball 92

Fastball 92

Fastball 92

Fastball 92

Fastball 93

 

guess he just needed that extra mph for the strikeout

LOL

I think the cardinals win when someone reaches base, tries to steal, and soto accidently throws the ball over the centerfield fence

for God's sakes, shut up plesac

Lemme guess. That wouldn't by any chance be......oh I dunno......BOB HOWRY's pitch sequence. Would it?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Next time Bob needs to be out of town, can we just have Len solo in the booth ala Vin Scully?

[UMFan83]

Cubs win the World Series!!!!

Pigs are flying!!!

Hell freezes over!!!

Bob Howry throws scoreless inning!!!

[CubsBears29]

*slaps self in the face*

 

Ok, not dreaming. But Howry just sat down Ludwick-Glaus-Molina in order, without surrendering a run, let alone a hit - AND got 2 Ks out of the deal!?!?!? :blink:

 

Ho-lee Shiznit!!!!!! :shock:

[bcl412]

Howry? Is that you?

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

for God's sakes, shut up plesac

 

Len is searching for a noose.

howry throws strikes. wuertz and eyre didn't do that consistently enough for lou's liking.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Bob Howry just threw a 1,2,,3 inning. I think I just crapped on myself.

[Keener98]

Well Howry just solidified his spot in the pen. If we dont score here, he better not pitch a 2nd inning

[weatherdood]

So someone tell me....did Shark go in the clubhouse, cut his hair, and put on a Howry jersey so he could pitch a 3rd inning?

[Soul]

How the hell did he get strikeouts?

 

I'll take it of course.

[carolinacubbie]

Stop hating on Howry, we win it this inning.

[FergieJ31]

Cubs win the World Series!!!!

Pigs are flying!!!

Hell freezes over!!!

Bob Howry throws scoreless inning!!!

 

In decreasing order of probability.

 

Nice work Bob!

[hawkeyecub]

Ye of little faith.

 

The outside strike zone that the ump has had today was perfect for Howry.

[DiamondMind]

I'm actually watching the cardinals' fsn midwest broadcast.

 

1) cant stand plesac

2) hope of hearing cardinals angst when we win on a walk-off tater

Yea its just that Howrys strikes land in the bleachers, and Wuertz and Eyres dont

Do you really want to hear them gloat if they take the lead?

[rawaction]

Hate to be cliche, but Howry is a guy with a lot of pride from all accounts. Don't be surprised if he has a good last couple months. He seemed to be truly embarrassed his last time out.

[Pushfrog98]

you realize this means we'll see him another inning and he'll make up for his good doings.
