horse feathers.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Well this game has been less than enjoyable.

[Flames24Rulz]

Ugh, that ball should've been smoked. Hopefully we get some 9th inning heroics again tonight.

[TMan92]

If we lost the game last night this one would really be frustrating.

[Andy]

The mind-blowing thing about the Cubs is that they have 47 losses, and I have no doubt that in almost half of them they've basically done this - largely outplay the other team but fail to get a big hit ever.

Reminds me of the playoffs last year.

Come on Cubs. ITS ONE ****ING RUN

I hope FreeCreditReport.com goes bankrupt.

It seems like whenever the Cubs come to these pitcher friendly parks, they compeltely forget how to play small ball, and its almost like their challenging the park itself.

Small ball? What should they be doing right now?

[Mark_R]

Those people have no dignity.

[TMan92]

It just amazes me that this defensively deficient Marlins team has yet to boot a ball....As if the stupid factor of the Marlins could not be any worse...fat male cheerleaders at a baseball game.

Scoring runs. Not leaving runners on base.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Yeah, we get it dancing fat guys. They're just as stupid when they're called the Matdors.

[TMan92]

We pitched really well tonight...come on you stupid offense.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Our pitching has been sick, sick, sick all night. Especially Shark and Marmol. We really should be wining this one.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 4-37 when they trail at the end of the 8th inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Mark_R]

I predict a game tying triple by Ryan Theriot.

 

And then Reed, Lee, and Fontenot all fail to bring him.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have been outscored 50-40 in the 9th inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Now is when you want Theriot running.

[Magnetic Curses]
