Define "all the time"

Multiple times per season around the big leagues.

 

So like 3-5 out of 2430 games in a season... doesn't sound like ALL the time.

 

He didn't even attempt to run... he jogged. I'm not asking him to sprint out everything... but come on.

 

Oh nevermind, he hit a HR earlier so he can be lazy the rest of the game... carry on.

 

jesus christ let it go

[inari]

Awesome, Micah!

[Hall7810]

A bit risky to run on that, but I'll take it.

 

Not really.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hoffpauir, pinch hitting for Marmol, singled to right field , FOntenot scored, Theriot to third

[TruffleShuffle]

i'm starting to develop a LLF-like crush on hoffpauir.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

not a bad first AB, but good thing it was a bad throw

 

With two outs, take your chances on a bad throw. Better odds than getting another hit.

[Flames24Rulz]

I like Hoffpauir. That's a huge run.

Sorry I thought game threads were to discuss things going on the game... I must be in the wrong thread.

[Hall7810]

Throw it into left, Pudge.

[Keener98]

WTF was that Pudge

[erik316wttn]

Haha WTF was that?

now that it's baseball season the ignore feature is an essential item.

Drag this game out as long as possible Cubs, I don't like what I'm seeing in the NC game. (don't blow the lead though...just have a very drawn out 1-2-3 inning coming up) Edited April 7, 2009 by UMFan83

[bcl412]

Let's win this Gregg

[Ski]

Would have been nice to get at least a 4 run league to protect against a grand slam, but I'll take what we got.

[BCVM22]

Fonty reducing himself to a half-pint Cubbie blue blur diving across the plate epitomizes everything that is great.

[erik316wttn]

I like Hoffpauir. That's a huge run.

 

I've always had a soft spot for guys who can come off the bench with power. It's why Glenallen Hill is one of my all-time favorite Cubs.

Drag this game out as long as possible Coubs, I don't like what I'm seeing in the NC game. (don't blow the lead though...just have a very drawn out 1-2-3 inning coming up)

 

Shouldn't you hate MSU?

[Keener98]

Come on Gregg, lets show the Cardinals how you close out a game in the 9th inning

[Careless]

Would have been nice to get at least a 4 run league to protect against a grand slam, but I'll take what we got.

...

 

I'd be more worried about giving up 4 runs in more than one AB

[hardcorecubfan]

I love you guys, really do. You are true Cub fans, not watching Basketball shows your loyalty, or at least you are only watching during the commercial breaks

I always thought it would be missing out on some potential good conversation if you ignored everyone after one thing you didn't like, but to each his own, I guess.

GO GREGG GO!!!

Gregg in to pitch for the CUBS
