8/14: Cubs (Lilly) @ Braves (Glavine) 6:10p CDT CSN

[Mizzou]

I love how Lilly was like "okay, but get your hands off of me" when Joe West was walking him away. I would've said the same damn thing.

[Andy]

Lilly gets tossed after an HBP that was probably not intentional for the 2nd time in a row in Atlanta. Lovely.

 

Pat said he's staying in the game.

Wow, I could've sworn CB was looking at him when he made the motion, guess not.

[erik316wttn]

Len says he could be ready tomorrow with this injury... I'd let him sit though.

We need to beat this Florida team once & for all. Especially since there's an actual chance the Brewers won't sweep this weekend.

 

The Dodgers have a scary lineup now, especially if Nomar can produce.

 

I wouldn't say scary. I would say "perhaps good enough given an excellent pitching staff."

 

I'd still rather face the Dodgers in the NLDS than Arizona any day of the week.

 

I know... be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it.

[98navigator]

Escobar is a punk

[UMFan83]

Funny. There's no way Ted should have been thrown out of the game last year vs. Atlanta, but probably should have been tossed here.

 

Better not see a 3 run homer.

Pat said there were no ejections on either side.

[Andy]

When I lived in South Carolina as a little kid, I rooted for the Braves. Now I hate them more than any NL team save probably the Cardinals and Brewers. Every single effing series they stir crap up and it really pisses me off.

[Soul]

SIT DOWN!!

[Outshined_One]

So, who do the Braves hit in retaliation?

[PrimeTime]

Hes jacked up. That one was at 91

[kujay]

I thought the Cubs handled that very well.

 

Just hope they stay cool if there is more retaliation.

 

Though I think it's even now.

[haubrich91]

Nice way to end the inning.

no, he was basically pointing at 1st and yelling at Sally to go straight there

[17 Seconds]

Lilly is only at 82 pitches, so he might get an AB this inning. That could be pretty interesting.

[Soul]

So, who do the Braves hit in retaliation?

Pull everyone out of the game with any value.

 

Oh wait, that's pretty much our entire lineup this year damn.

[UMFan83]

I don't know, the way the Braves play ball, I wouldn't be surprised if theres another beanball. And if that happens, you are guaranteed to see a fight and suspensions. Cubs walking a tight line here.

[Schwarber Fan]

So, who do the Braves hit in retaliation?

 

If it's Soriano, someone has to die tonight

I think he warned Tedular

Cedeno PH for everyone the rest of the game.

[Brian]

That was so ridiculous

 

The Cubs did nothing there.

 

Escobar pointed, Lilly just stood there, and the Braves cleared their benches BEGGING for something to go down. I'm glad the Cubs didn't stoop down.

[weis21]

So, who do the Braves hit in retaliation?

If it's Soto...

 

God help them.

[erik316wttn]

I said earlier in this thread that any retaliation should have been saved for the bottom of the 9th.

[Andy]

So, who do the Braves hit in retaliation?

Pull everyone out of the game with any value.

I just said "pinch hit Edmonds for Soriano" and realized a second later there's no way I want Edmonds hit either. It's a good problem to have I guess.
