If you're a teeth grinder, might wanna put in that mouth guard 'cuz were heading for tense-ville in the bottom of the 9th.

i sure hope so but unfortunately whoever asks it will say "lou, why miles in the 8th?" and accept his answer and leave it at that rather than asking a "tough question". know what i mean?

 

you don't seem to understand how press conferences work. you don't ask the manager a question and then get into a shouting match because you disagree with him.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Hows about we get Lee out of that 3 hole.

[BCVM22]

Seatbelts to maximum buckleage!

You're gonna have to ask a tougher question than that "golden boy".

Its nail biting time. Please make it quick and painless Gregg.

[UMFan83]

i'm with bob, he went farther than i thought he did.

Either way, if it was close it would have probably been a makeup call for the one last inning.

unless your that STL beat reporter who yelled at TLR

 

and how the hell does he know what bruce asks him?

Huh?

the foe feature is a magical thing.

lol, you mean the wrigley usher doesn't see my posts?! how tragic.

 

keener---didnt mean to be a "prick" (thanks for being one yourself)... just seems that bruce is thought awfully highly of here... since he's so "in tune" with nsbb, you'd think people here would implore him to ask tough questions. yet they don't. and he doesn't.

We probably shouldn't tell him how to do his job.

who said anything about a shouting match? for once, i would just like to see a chicago reporter actually ask a tough question and have lou answer it. i get that they wanna remain on lou's good side for access rights and all that jazz, but still... beat your competition by asking tough questions. your columns will be more popular by doing so.

[Roast]

Come on cubs, make the 9th painless.

[Soul]

oh boy, major tension heading our way.

Look, I would have PH for Hoff too, but at the same time Hoff strikes out more (i think) and I still don't trust him at all against breaking pitches, as he's had trouble handling them in his big league ABs

 

And a strikeout allows Soriano to bat and doesn't end the inning.

 

Hoffpauir had a much better chance of hitting the ball in the air into the outfield for a sac fly than Miles did and the situation called for a sac fly.

[Cynosure]

I see the GDTs are taking on the same life they had last year... this time I'm not in the middle of it :-)) :-))

right but i think the only choices that make sense are hoff and gathright. if you're looking for a fly ball or a big inning, go with hoff. if you're afraid he'll K or is slow and will GIDP, put in gathright, who runs really well and doesn't K much. combine that with miles' poor track record against that pitcher and he was a poor option.

[cubswin2009]

The ever-popular Gathright for Fukudome switch

[Hall7810]

Gathright in.
