Upper back spasms after an awkward swing yesterday, per Len. Probably can pinch hit today.

On the pregame interview, Piniella said he expects D Lee to play tomorrow.

[CubInOK]

Brewers have em loaded for Sabathia with 1 out.

Lou read this board last night and decided LLF, and others are right, and decided to bench Lee.

[Allroy]

Harden is a strikeout machine. He looks like he's playing a video game.

I don't see Hoffpauir. :(

[Fred Hornkohl]

Edmonds walked

[CubInOK]

PIT gets out of the inning without giving up a run.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Brewers leave the bases loaded with nobody out and the bases loaded with only one out in consecutive innings. Still no score heading into the fifth.

[Allroy]

Weeks strikes out and the Brews leave em loaded again. Lets hope it comes back to haunt them.

[Keener98]

And the Brewers leave them loaded!

[kujay]

I think Brenly just (sort of) made a Blazing Saddles reference.

 

A for effort, Bob.

Hey in case anyone was wondering, Milw left them loaded

[ToupeeOnFire]

Nice baserunning Edmonds.

[Keener98]

That was not smart Jimmy

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soto popped out to second base , Edmonds doubled off first
