8/17 Cubs (Gemster) @ Florida (Volstad) 12:10p CDT, WGN TV

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pinto in to pitch for Florida

[Guest]

Let's go, DeRo!

[kujay]

Oh man, Edmonds vs. a lefty. Not a big fan of announcing him as the PH. I wish we had a RH off the bench besides Cedeno.

 

We have DeRosa today.

 

Good call. That's the move. Jimmy wasted.

[UMFan83]

They should have announced Cedeno as the PH. He hits better vs. righties, so in the event that they don't bring in the lefty, which they probably wouldn't, we'd have a good PH up.

Yeah, I woulda brought in Derosa and force them to possibly keep Volstad in.

Can't waste Edmonds like that. At the very least, bring up Ward and waste him. But Edmonds has been the best Cubs hitter this year, and now he's out of the game w/ no ABs or defense.

[SpongeWorthy]

All right, all right, all right

[Guest]

Fonzie slam?

[Fred Hornkohl]

DeRosa, pinch hitting for Edmonds, walked , Johnson to seconbd

[kujay]

Let's go Sori!

[UMFan83]

Why do I still not feel confident about runs scoring here?

 

 

Oh because I'm a pessimist.

[UMFan83]

Wow I can't believe Pinto gave him a decently located fastball on the first pitch.

[UMFan83]

Blah, you knew when Soriano went up 2-1, he was going to swing at the next pitch no matter what.

[BCVM22]

YEEHAW

[genbar]

YESSSS

[Guest]

Fonzie!! 2-2.

[kujay]

Hell Yeah! Bad defense rulezzzzzzzzzzz!

[SpongeWorthy]

Thank god for geriatric left fielders!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano doubled to left field , Fontenot & Johnson scored, DeRosa to third

[UMFan83]

Geez when he first hit that, I thought for sure that he was going to catch it on his feet and it would be too shallow to score a run.

[Guest]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Roast]

Thankyou, soriano.
