Yeah but Randy Johnson is not 13-0 lifetime vs. the Cardinals. I will be parinoid about Randy Johnson until we actually beat him.

 

True enough.

 

I really don't want to see Fuku try to rip one into the wind here. Just a base hit...

[rynefan]

I know and Theriot has been so good at getting on base, too. Looks like they're sensing desperation!

[Keener98]

Edmonds is 6 for his last 44, and that includes his feasting of the Pirates pitching when he went 3-5.

 

I think the magic is ovah.

 

So do you go back to being a holdout?

 

Well my level of patience has always been thin with him so yeah.

 

Yeah, he needed to do more to win me over and his leash is a lot shorter.

 

If anyone cares, in light of all the hand-wringing about facing the D-backs in October, Randy Johnson got lit up by the Cards today. Four homers, including shots by Molina and Lopez (!). AZ leads 7-6 in 7th with bases loaded and 1 out.

 

Yeah but Randy Johnson is not 13-0 lifetime vs. the Cardinals. I will be parinoid about Randy Johnson until we actually beat him.

 

Randy Johnson is also not 13-0 against the 2008 Cubs. Him being 13-0 is completely irrelevant.

[David]

Dammit Cubs, why the hell did you get a fake rally. Now we have to see a man gyrate all over the mound in a few minutes.

 

I loled

[David]

Tell me you guys just heard the crowd singing livin on a prayer

[Guest]

They're playing and singing your song at Wrigley, David.

Sadly, Id rather see Fuku try to homer than Lee.

[TruffleShuffle]

Hmm I wonder what this inning looks like if Theriot actually decides to try working the count a little.

 

yeah he only has the highest obp on the team, i'm fed up with his lack of patience.

[UMFan83]

Fukucopter?

[Sammy Sofa]

I say Fuku walks and then Lee DP's.

[kujay]

LOL

 

Seems to be a regular thing now, I presume during fake rallies.

 

They played in on Saturday when we were there.

[UMFan83]

This is a very similar situation to March 31st against the Brewers.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Fukucopter?

 

 

No doubt.

Too bad Gagne isn't in there.

Yea he showed that in the 9th. didnt he? When you are down 3-0 in the 9th inning there is no reason to go up hacking at the 1st pitch.

Except I was there for that one..... my son is there today.

[UMFan83]

Not quite a Fukucopter

[Butterscup1679666578]

Geez. Come on Lee, get on for Aram.

[Sammy Sofa]

DP taken out of Lee's hands.

[Keener98]

Time for Lee to be completely overmatched.

[Guest]

Come on, DLee!

[kujay]

Dammit.

 

Nice slide, Sori.

[UMFan83]

I wish Hoffpauir could PH here.

 

It would be perfect. I doubt they have much of a book on him, I believe Hoff can play 1B, and he's a bigger power threat than Lee.
