:banghead:

 

Marlins strand Hanley

[chuckywang]

Rick Ankiel turns a single into a triple

 

Hanley at 3rd no one out!

 

And they don't score. The Florida Marlins quest to become the most annoying franchise in baseball history continues.

[Schwarber Fan]

Joe soap droppin Mather goes deep

 

thanks fish

[SouthSideRyan]

Go Cardinals.

[CubsNSkers07]

the pathetic marlins.... 3rd and no one out and they can't hit a ball to the outfield.... interesting. Oh well 6.5 back it's not the Cardinals can beat us in a series anyways.

[Schwarber Fan]

Dan Uggla inexplicably tries to steal 2nd after drawing a leadoff walk and is thrown out by a mile. :banghead:

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Screw you Dan Uggla.

 

Uggla on first....no outs.....bottom of the ninth. Cards up 4-2 and Uggla chooses to steal and gets thrown out.

lmao lead off walk to ugly in the bottom caught stealing 2nd on a 1-0 count and he had only thrown 2 strikes... what were they trying to pull a pathetic hit and run? Wow Marlins

[chuckywang]

Why would you try to steal in the bottom of the 9th when you're down 2? Your run means nothing.

[SouthSideRyan]

I said during the all star game that Uggla would never make another all star game after that. It was a totally outrageous claim.

 

Uggla post all star break: .193 .280 .361

[CubsNSkers07]

game over closer? Chris Perez strikes out 2 and Uggla caught stealing Cards win 4-2.

 

Cubs 71-47

Brew 68-51 3.5

Card 66-55 6.5

 

Series next week

Cubs @ Atlanta win 2 of 3 or else!

Brewers @ Padres they'll probably sweep

Cards with 3 more @ Marlins catch the Brewers if they lose.

White Sox show a replay of Uribe going on a check swing. Darrin Jackson calls it a terrible call. Harrelson say he did not go. I mean, how do you do that with a straight face?

The same way you call a major league ballgame by essentially using a soundboard of corn-fed clichéd sayings? It is Hawk.

To be fair, he did invent most of those cliches.

Regardless, I maintain that you could cobble together a Harrelson soundboard containing his list of Hawkisms (can o' corn, cinch 'em up and hunker down now, chopper two-hopper, put it on the board, etc) and play the soundbites randomly and still have something that would largely resemble a live broadcast. He's just terrible.

And out in LA, Manny Ramirez delays the start of the top of the 9th as it takes 5 minutes for him to finally emerge from the tunnel and scurry out to left field. :lol:

Guys, we really should be rooting for the Cardinals at this point.

 

They're not passing us, but they *might* pass the Brewers.

Gosh, Cole Hamels vs Clayton Kershaw tomorrow at Chavez Ravine.

 

I want to go.

I know it's likely that somebody else has already said this, but the Brewers sweep over the Nationals had to be one of the most predictable four-game sweeps ever.

Which means, if the Cubs don't sweep the Nationals later this month, I will be ticked...
