5/9 Cubs (Dempster) vs Brewers (Gallardo) 6:05 PM CSN

[UMFan83]

I thought the awesome depth that Jim built for us this offseason was going to allow us to avoid these situations.

[Little Slide Rooter]

This would be an ideal time for the Geo of old to make a 1 night only appearence. Probably wont happen, but it would be nice.

[inari]

Well, crap.

I think that was the worst AB that I've seen all season by any Cub player. I don't know what it feels like to try to play baseball with Lee's injury, but I can't believe he couldn't play for 2 innings considering originally he was supposed to play today.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Villanueva in to pitch for Milwaukee

[Andy]

There's your break, Geo. Better take advantage.

[Fred Hornkohl]

I would accept a walk here.

[Outshined_One]

Holy schnikes.

[UMFan83]

Remember when Geo hit that 3 run homer against Milwaukee with 2 outs in the 9th last year? Yeah that was fun.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Great job by Captain Rally Killer.

[cubswin2009]

This team is a joke.

[NotSoSober]

Have the Cubs crossed the plate more via walks with the bases loaded than basehits? Just terrible.

[Andy]

Why is our rookie of the year the one that decides to get on his knees and blow chunks in year 2? Why couldn't it happen to Braun?

[Little Slide Rooter]

Remember when Geo hit that 3 run homer against Milwaukee with 2 outs in the 9th last year? Yeah that was fun.

 

Wasnt he good back then?

[UMFan83]

The second day in a row where we loaded the bases with 1 out in a 1 run game and didn't score. If you want to look at why we aren't winning as much this year, there is a reason. We seemed to always get those runs in last year. Bah, well we still have 6 more outs to work with today.

[TruffleShuffle]

offense has come up real small the last 2 nights.

[Derwood]

RIP Geovany Soto

[rynefan]

Bench him. I'm sick of it.

[Magnetic Curses]

how come that kind of crap only seems to happen to the cubs? at least, among "contending teams".

we also had 1st and 3rd with 0 out in the first inning and didn't score.

[CHCinIC]

what happened to the geo of 2008?
