Stupid Brad Snyder.

Seems like a theme Cubs down, by 1 or 2 going intot he 8th. Some crap reliever lets the other team score a few runs. next inning, Cubs stage a fake rally that just falls short, but would have been the win had said crap reliever not given up the 8th inning runs.

[Brian]

aka mid season form

aka mid season form

 

Correction: that will not happen to the Cubs. They won't have crap relievers in mid season.

Very sloppy game yesterday. Terrible defense from the Cubs, although the box score might not show it.

 

Lee fields a ball in the first with Kemp on 3rd and immediately throws it home...unfortunately Kemp wasn't attempting to score. Dumb.

 

Theriot looks terrible as usual at SS, bouncing throws to first on 2 different occassions.

 

Miles' arm is kinda a joke from 3rd.

 

And whoever pitched yesterday (other than Demp) don't belong in professional baseball.

 

Off to Milwaukee's park for the game today. Will try to post notes in game thread.
