Nice recovery Heilman. Will Lou throw Gregg again? He seems like he's pitched an awful lot already.

For Gregg's sake I hope not. If he blows it if the fans don't kill him Lilly will go, "medieval on his ass".

 

Hahaha. Len, says "Kevin Gregg in the Cubs pen", with a sense of dread in his voice.

Oh boy Kevin Gregg warming up! :no:

Mark Fidrych died today.

:( That completes the trifecta.

[Tryptamine]

It sure would be nice to have a 1,2,3 9th. I'm tired of chest pain inducing ninth innings.

I'd still feel better with a bigger lead.

[Ski]

Good AB by Sori

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano singled to left field

[Tryptamine]

If the Cubs can put up a run or two this inning I think I'd like to see Patton pitch instead.

[Ski]

Why sacrifice?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot sacrificed, 5-3, Soriano to second

[Soul]

Why sacrifice?

It is a bit strange with a 3 run lead.

[jersey cubs fan]

Why sacrifice?

 

To scratch one more run across and make it a non-save situation.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 8-1 when they make 2 or more sac bunts in the game.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Smack]

Why sacrifice?

It is a bit strange with a 3 run lead.

 

Theriot kills his hit-streak too...

[Ski]

Eh, got the run in.

[erik316wttn]

Kouske with the RBI single then gets picked off of first rounding too far.

[Tryptamine]

Fuku is all kind of awesome even though he made a dumb base running mistake.

[Soul]

Well, I take it back. It worked.

[Brian]

imagine the level of greatness sitting at that part of the bench (Z and Marmol)

[Butterscup1679666578]

get an insurance run and speed the game along a bit. i'll take it.

[Prior4CyYoung]

dumb base running play but at least he drove the run in.

[Sosa21MVP]

Nice job Kosuke. I can forgive the base running error there.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome singled to left field , Soriano scored, Fukudome caught off 1b, 7-5-3

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Soriano is not a natural at running.

[Banedon]

Did Soriano look a little gimpy there to anyone else?
