9/19 Cardinals (Wainwright) at Cubs (Mr No No), 1:20 CT, CSN

[kujay]

Hrabosky just said that Pujols is going for a Triple Crown for the fourth straight year.

 

I'm assuming that he means that he's been close the last 4 years, but no, no he hasn't.

 

And he's not close this year either.

 

Al "God wants the Cardinals to win" Hrabosky may be the dumbest color guy in baseball.

Commence board meltdown in 3..2..1...

[Schwarber Fan]

We'll clinch tomorrow

[CubInOK]

Looks like we'll have to make another comeback today.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Well...Go Reds.

[rynefan]

FYI, Zambrano hasn't hit more than 92 on the gun. Let's hope he didn't use all of his bullets Sunday.

Not once in 7 pitches?!?! He's headed to the DL.

 

Not saying he's hurt or anything, just that last Sunday was special and we shouldn't expect him to shut anyone down. That was really his only great start in a while. I hope it continues and he'll be fine, but let's not pretend he morphed into mr. unhittable for good.

Did you really expect him to throw another no hitter?

 

No, but we didn't expect this, that's for sure.

A double play now and he only gives up 1 run.

 

Nice thought, anyway.

[CubmanPi]

First pitch of the game is almost always a get-me-over fastball, which happened to get roped. Next batter reached on a well-placed bloop. Next batter was Pujols. Rough start, but I'm not worried. (The 3-0 count here sucks though.)

I take it back. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

Or he could give up a grand slam. :blackeye:

[PrimeTime]

Wow..This blows..You gotta keep them at 5 and keep nibbling away

[kujay]

No meltdown here.

 

But Adam Kennedy?

 

Is the wind blowing out?

[bukie]

Huh, Adam Kennedy grand slam. Didn't see that one coming.

 

Ahh well, still 9 innings of offense left for both teams.

[Cynosure]

THIS UMPIRE SUCKS... what the hell? Seriously... I am saying this every day, these assclowns need to be disciplined.

 

Maybe it's not the umps...

 

Or.... it.... definitely...... is.......

[Guest]

Well this certainly isn't good.

[Sammy Sofa]

Eh, get him out of there. No need to push it.

[UMFan83]

I think its safe to say that every fear about Zambrano that was alleviated by the no hitter is now back for me.

[Sammys Boombox]

I was excited because I thought Z was back, back to the August self that is.

lol maybe it's not the umps maybe it's the Cubs playing so crappy

 

wait...

[UMFan83]

This Cardinals team just lost 7 in a row, including getting swept by the Cardinals and almost swept by the Reds, and now they are teeing off on our Game 1 starter, bleh

[Cynosure]

Miles grounds out to Lee at first base.

 

None on, 2 outs.

[Banedon]

Cards fans have been ripping on Kennedy mercilessly...and Kennedy has demanded a trade...funny that he hit a GS...

[TruffleShuffle]

adam kennedy? skippy schumaker?

[CubmanPi]

Is the wind blowing out?

Pat and Ron talking like it is.

[bukie]

I think its safe to say that every fear about Zambrano that was alleviated by the no hitter is now back for me.

 

Chances are pretty good he won't throw 110 pitches this time, though.

[Cynosure]

Wainwright strikes out (1).

 

INNING OVER

 

Cardinals lead 5-0

[laurens]

Well, if we lose today and so do the Brewers, we can clinch tomorrow by a Cubs win instead of a Brewers loss today. I think that'd be even more awesome.
