NLDS Game 2: Dodgers (Billingsley) @ Cubs (Z!) TBS, 8:30 CST

[splintersag]

Why are the fans cheering Z?

 

I'm too negative right now. Wait. Is that possible?

They've finally been driven mad. When bad things happen, they cheer. :twisted:

 

But seriously, this isn't all Z's fault, the defense, offense didn't show up, etc.

How many pitches will Soriano see this ab

 

over/under at 2

 

Doh! It takes more than two pitches to strike out!

[go_cubs_go]

I said this last night and I'll say it again. Soriano reminds me of Sammy w/ that outside pitch. You know it's coming and he can't hit it.

 

don't insult Sammy like that

[Outshined_One]

Remember when the Cubs had the best offense in baseball?

 

Good times.

[cbbryan]

1-2-3. What a joke.

 

 

 

WALK MANNY RAMIREZ THIS INNING!

[rocket]

ab. so. lute. ly. embarrassing.

[17 Seconds]

Only 79 pitches through 6 for Billignsley.

 

Only ONE walk (from the pitcher, who hasn't walked all season) off a guy who walked 80 in the regular season.

[Derwood]

I can say unequivocally that I have never seen a team play as tight as the Chicago Cubs have the past 5 playoff games

[UMFan83]

I find it ironically hilarious that Dick Stockton just explained the exact emotions I am going throw PERFECTLY. I mean he NAILED IT. Laughing but resigned, but not angry.

[jaydee]

cubs batters dont even care anymore. just swing at the first pitch or second pitch, make a weak out, and get home ASAP. what a joke. blow this team up

That was when they went like 22-6 right? That was soooooooo long ago...

Miller High Life? Ostrich burgers are actually great!

I know it's not all his fault, but he's not worthy of praise simply because he hustled down the line to first on a crappy groundout.

They need to catch their flight to LA.

Sammy may've fallen from good grace, he might've done everything to lose respect by fans, but he's still a Cub in my mind, and I'm going to cheer for and defend him.

 

Go Sammy, and go Cubs.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Even if we lose this one, if we could win three in a row, we're back in business!

[Irrelevant Dude]

I don't know what can be done, but something needs to change for next year... 97 wins are meaningless and this is ridiculous.

Outside of one year when Sammy decided to hit the outside pitch to RF............it's true.

That's the spirit!

Might as well just forfeit

[Old Style]

So when do pitchers & catchers report to Mesa?

[kujay]

Yep.

 

I feel like such an idiot for again investing so much energy and emotion in this 25-man pile of [expletive].
