Aramalamadingdong was the old Aramis HR call when he was with the Pirates.

Marmol now, please

[Butterscup1679666578]

great outing rich.

[NotSoSober]

What is Hardens pitch count at? I'm actually shocked he came back out. I guess it's because I don't remember seeing him pitch in the 8th.

Perhaps a relief pitcher would be in order here, Lou ??

92 going into the 8th, so probably above 100 now

I thought Lou should have lifted him after last inning. Guess I was right.

Rich has pitched decent tonight, but hes still not the Rich Hill we traded for last July.

Ha, mixed up my Rich's I guess.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 7-2 when they allow fewer than 4 runs.... 7-10 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[UMFan83]

Milwaukee has been better than I thought so far. I didn't think they'd be awful, but they seem to be winning every night.

Ha !! That's rich, eh? :wink:

[BCVM22]

Marmol puts out the fire.

 

No Gregg tonight plz, just let Marmol go two.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 12-1 when they lead at the end of the 8th inning

 

 

Go CUBS !!

They've been playing mediocre teams, and largely winning slugfests, which we all knew would be their M.O. When they run into some good pitching, they won't win a whole lot of games.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Marmol never gave those poor guys a chance. Hes a perfect example of why ERA is such a worthless stat when it comes to 1 inning relievers.
