[BigSlick]

I don't understand the intense desire to make outs at an unrivaled pace

 

You can take pitches, work some at bats and maybe get some walks or something, is that like, not in the cards for some reason?

[UMFan83]

What was that a 4 pitch inning?

[Little Slide Rooter]

What an inning!

[Keener98]

Jesus nice inning Cubs. That was our 2 3 4 hitters folks wow

[TMan92]

I thought he was awesome.

 

they need to drop the crappy celebs on pr tours, and have only fans and people with actual ties to the cubs do it.

 

and drop the bottom of the 7th interviews.

 

Exactly...at least this guy gives a squat about the Cubs.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

I know Soriano is a favorite whipping boy of the masses here, but D-Lee has been brutal for months and shows no signs of getting any better.

Oswalt is throwing a ton of strikes and has great location.

Come on, it's labor day. The players just want to get home to their families as fast as possible.

Greetings from Sec 220, Row 7.

 

Anyone know why Soriano isn't runnin very hard to 1st base? He seems like he's still gimpy to me.

[rawaction]

Wonder if the Astros will argue that Theriot's IF hit shoulda been an error on Castillo so Oswalt can have a 1-hitter?

[Mizzou]

My goodness they need to get rid of the guest singers. This Palacios sp? was up there with the worst yet.

 

Wasn't he the contest winner?

 

Yes and it was an aboslute an utter freaking joke wow

Huh? I thought it was awesome.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS were held to 2 hits in a game.... Mon 21 July 08 (2 hits) in a 2-0 loss at Arizona

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Andy]

I can barely remember when we were scoring runs.

[Magnetic Curses]

why have we lost every ounce of momentum that we had?

 

we can't score at all and we better start winning again, quick.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

It's very hard to go 3 straight games without getting an extra base hit, yet here we are. Hopefully they come alive these last two innings.

[David]

OK, the novelty has worn off. They need to get this guy off already, wtf...

[Keener98]

Well this games over, lets hope we get good Z tomorrow.

[Keener98]

OK, the novelty has worn off. They need to get this guy off already, wtf...

 

 

Seriously

[Garage Party]

Gonzalo should replace Len.

[ChiCubsfan0502]

Ok, this guy needs to go back to his seat.

[Little Slide Rooter]

At least the Astros players are interested in the game.

[RedFlash]

The Cubs are not going to see the Stros' bullpen. Why so the Stros go to their bullpen, when Oswalt will complete this game is under 100 pitches.

[chuckywang]

OK, the novelty has worn off. They need to get this guy off already, wtf...

 

No way! I love this guy!

[David]

Oh, cool.
