8/26 Cubs (Z!) @ Pirates (Snell) - 6:05 WGN TV

[bcl412]

Pirates must have a hot date. They're hacking away.

 

I think they have swung at everything this inning. (Except that one)

[kujay]

Left this game thread for all the good parts. Maybe I should run along again.

 

What's not to love about this team? I mean, other than Howry.

[Ski]

They should change the rules so that Marmol can strike out a batter with two strikes. If they get to two strikes, they're going to strike out anyway.

[Hall7810]

HE's called that all night!

[17 Seconds]

Pirates look to be in swing at everything mode. With the filthiness of Marmol and Wood, this one's over.

 

I doubt Wood starts the 9th

The ump must like it here. That was strike 3.

ROY

 

You spelled MVP wrong.

 

You spelled King of Kings wrong.

You spelled God wrong.

 

:lol:

 

Geovany Soto said "Let there be light!"

 

God said "Yes, sir."

[Mizzou]

So the Cards are going to be 9.5 out after tonight.

[kujay]

No matter.

 

So, Wood or Howry for the 9th?

I hope not but I don't trust Lou to not use him.

Fish in a barrel for Marmol.

Wood. He hasn't worked since Thursday and I want this game to be OVER.

hahahaha!

 

That snake is dead.

They could be 10 out with 10 to play and I'd still be worried about them.

Are the Steelers in town?

He went last night.

[UMFan83]

So the Cards are going to be 9.5 out after tonight.

 

And the Cubs will be 9.5 games ahead of a playoff spot after tonight (with 30 to play). They would have to make up almost a game in the standings every 3 days to catch up to the Cubs.

No, but now I'm very curious.

[JoshiQ]

Why are people dressing up as empty chairs?

[Ski]

How are the Cubs going to blow this?
