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

Why that call sucked.

[manbearcub]

1st inning IBB = extremely dumb, especially with a couple guys who kill lefties coming up.

[BCVM22]

Whee

I was about to question Lou's decision to bat Reed fifth ahead of Soto and DeRosa but then I looked up the splits and Reed has the highest OPS (.949) against lefties of the three. Soto at .918 and DeRosa at .838.

[UMFan83]

Derrek could have scored.

[imb]

I like it when the IBB comes back to bite. I hope it happens here

 

high five

 

let's stick about 5 runs up their ass here

[Andy]

Derrek could have scored.

Held up to make sure the ball didn't get through...no big problem with that.

[kujay]

That 2-0 strike call was awful.

 

But it don't matter to REED!

 

Now let's put a big number up.

[manbearcub]

Their bullpen is gonna be HOSED. I'd love to be the next team that plays them.

[Guest]

23 pitches already for Glavine after the Soto walk. 2-0 Cubs!

[CubFanPhilly]

This will not end well for Glavine.

[JonnyRed]

Derrek could have scored.

 

Fortunately he just did.

[UMFan83]

Away, away, away, away, in, away, away

[Slugger_16]

That first call to DeRo was crap. This umpire thinks it's 1995.

[Ski]

I think this is the first ever series where the cubs actually followed our optimistic predictions.

[BCVM22]

DAMN that's disappointing.

[UMFan83]

SOB

[CubFanPhilly]

If I had Glavine's velocity I wouldn't throw strikes either.

[17 Seconds]

Well that sucked

[chuckywang]

DEBLOWSA ... amirite people???

[imb]

Well that sucks.

 

Glavine's got about three innings in him today, max.

[Allroy]

Damnit Dero. We could have ended this game there.

[Schwarber Fan]

NLCS 2007 flashback

[Ski]

Dam

[kujay]

Yeah, that really did suck.

 

But it doesn't seem like Glavine is going to find it. I don't think he gets out of the 4th if the guys stay patient.
