Anyone else having huge trouble with MLB.tv? It's not working one bit.

Agreed

[Cubswin11]

Nice AB Milton, 2 AB's and he has seen 12 pitches.

[Shilzzz]

[ctcf]

Elsewhere in the league, the Yanks pen is going up in flames.

[Mark_R]

Obviously, I would like more than 2 runs, but we have killed Oswalt's pitches all night and its just a matter of time before we put up a big inning.

[Cubswin11]

Man in most other parks Rammy and Lee both have HR's this inning...

[Fred Hornkohl]

Elsewhere in the league, the Yanks pen is going up in flames.

 

I love it. I hope the Yanks don't win the Series for another 30 years.

 

That's probably why George stepped down-- the massive coronary that spending all that money and not getting to or winning the WS must have given him.

[ctcf]

Also, I enjoy the Miller High Life ads.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Bourn blooped a single to left field

[BCVM22]

Nothing I hate more than bloop hits.

[erik316wttn]

Astros getting a lot of little bloop hits today.

 

Here comes the Oswalt bunt.

[Ski]

It'd be nice if Z could get the leadoff man off.

[erik316wttn]

It'd be nice if Z could get the leadoff man off.

 

um................ no

[ctcf]

It'd be nice if Z could get the leadoff man off.

 

I feel like you need to rephrase that.

[erik316wttn]

Z, he's trying to GIVE you an out. Throw strikes!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Oswalt sacrificed, 1-4, Bourn to second

[Ski]

Strikes plz
