September 11: Cubs (Harden) at Cards(Wellemeyer) 7:15 CT,CSN

[rawaction]

I know the PC is fine, but I wouldn't pitch Harden anymore. He's healthy. He got game action. He can get the win. Deep bullpen. Use it.

[CubsNSkers07]

Come on Rich strikes please good sir. No baserunners for Pujjy

[Hall7810]

Soto trying to pull everything when he should be trying to advance the runner

 

I hope by 'advance the runner' you don't mean just advance him to third.

 

Why not? 1 Out with Reed Johnson up and a guy on 3rd is much better than on 2nd with 1 otu?

 

The run is probably going to score from second anyway on a base hit. Soto should be trying to drive the runner in, not simply move him over to 3rd.

 

 

that is true with fontenot there, but I'd rather have him standing on 3b then on 2b with 1 out. Dexter was saying I'm assuming he should've been trying to at least get the ball on the right side of the field.

 

And Geo's swing isn't conducive to it. It never has been.

I'd feel more comfortable having the bullpen only have to go 3 innings instead of 4 thats just me though.

[Guest]

Two down in Philly.

With two off-days, I agree entirely.

[Cynosure]

Schumaker pops out to Johnson in center field.

 

None on, 1 out.

[CubsNSkers07]

Get the always pesky aaron miles out please.

We're saying Geo should try and get hits rather than make outs. It's particularly mind-blowing coming after Geo missed a double by about 6 inches to say he should try and sacrifice himself to move the runner up.

[Cynosure]

Miles walks.

 

Man on 1st, 1 out.

[Hall7810]

The CSN camera crew has been bad.

[bcl412]

Brewers lose

[Guest]

Philly wins 6-3.

[CubsNSkers07]

Game over in Philly, Lead no worse than 4.5 after tonight.

[Sammys Boombox]

Philadelphia wins!

 

Magic Number: 12!

[BCVM22]

FACK

[Bote McBoteface]

Ballgame over, Philly wins. Lets win this one and shrink the magic number a lil more.

[17 Seconds]

That's what happens when you walk Aaron Miles in front of Pujols.

[Cynosure]

Pujols doubles off the left field wall. Miles scores.

 

Man on 2nd, 1 out.

 

CUBs leading: 3-1

[InconspicuousZ28]

Way to loaf it on over to that ball, Sori.

[CubsNSkers07]

Come on Harden, do to Pujols what you did in the first please.

[CubsNSkers07]

nevermind

[Sammys Boombox]

How come every game the Cubs leave a pitch right there to Pujols. We're lucky he didn't elevate it into the bullpen.

[Ski]

So, can Pujols not drive in a run every time he is up to bat?

[sweetpeteman]

Can the pitchers please STOP throwing fastballs over the middle of the plate to Pujols?
