The weather for the Cubs home opener is going to be predictably mediocre.

 

That's an improvement from what I was seeing a couple of days ago.

 

As long as the rain holds off, I'll be happy.

Fukudome grounded out to short, 6-3

[Outshined_One]

Kosuke, if you've got to make a swing like that to make contact...don't make that swing.

[UMFan83]

Looper isn't really as good as he's looked for the first 2 batters. But he made Sori and Fuk look bad.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Kosuke, the fastball is moving away from you, keep your shoulder in.

[haubrich91]

Nice AB Lee.

[Fred Hornkohl]

D Lee walked

[Roast]

Good to see the cubs patient this early.

[Keener98]

Oh look Bradley has a 3 ball count already what a shock

[David]

Another 3-0 at bat going to 3-2 on foul balls...ahh

[Roast]

well darn.

nice signing hendry, the guy can't hit

[UMFan83]

0-10

 

Jock only started 0-13 before we all went nuts on him.

 

Although technically he was 0-0 before we started hating him.

 

Bradley is still awesome.

[Roast]

at least we made him throw almost 25 pitches, at least

[Outshined_One]

0-10

 

Jock only started 0-13 before we all went nuts on him.

 

Although technically he was 0-0 before we started hating him.

 

Bradley is still awesome.

 

Jacque also was allergic to patience. It wasn't just that he didn't get a hit; it's that his ABs were really bad.

[UMFan83]

DeRosa 1-13

Bradley 0-10

 

Indians win.

[TruffleShuffle]

0-10

 

Jock only started 0-13 before we all went nuts on him.

 

Although technically he was 0-0 before we started hating him.

 

Bradley is still awesome.

 

he better start hitting before drunken cub fans start calling him the n-word and he subsequently bashes their brains in with a bat.

[UMFan83]

91!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

24 pitches is as good as you can hope for for a 4 batter inning.
