5/20: Cubs (Demp) at Cards (Carpenter); 7:15 pm CT, CSN/ESPN

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 13-5 when they score first in the game.... 8-11 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BigSlick]

absolutely no way we actually score a run in this game so we should just forfeit

[Hawk4Hall]

The Cubs need to do something out of the ordinary and score a run or two. 8-)

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 11-9 when the opponent GIDPs at least once.... 10-7 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

I hate when the Cubs are in the inevitable slump that happens during the course of a baseball season.

[Guest]

It's the 4th inning, why is the infield in?

 

Hey, Sutcliffe the Genius said it was the right thing to do so who are we to argue with it.

 

But yeah, I had the same thought as well.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Me thinks the Bobby Scales magic has run its course.

Theres gonna be more than one, bubba

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS came to town with a nifty 5.06 R/G average..... now it's 13 innings and counting without a run !!!

 

Go CUBS !!

Seriously that may have been the dumbest move Lous made all year, and thats saying alot. The 4th [expletive] inning and our entire infield was pulled in. Lous panicking plain and simple.

[gflore34]

K's in 6 pitches.

He's had two games without a hit.

 

You didn't really think he was going to get a hit in every game he played, did you?

If we are pulling the IF in, in the 4th effing inning. I fully expect every runner that reaches 1st/2nd the rest of the way out either attempt to steal or be sacrificed over.

[gflore34]

K's in 6 pitches.

[Andy]

Well, good series, guys. On to San Diego.

It's pretty much telling your offense that you don't have faith in them to score a couple runs in the next five innings.

[bcl412]

This is fun.

[gflore34]

I was close it was 4 pitches.

[Soul]

Sure sori, join the suck parade

[Butterscup1679666578]

I don't see, under any circumstances, us ever scoring again.

[Hawk4Hall]

Home plate just seems so far away right now. The Cubs are going to need the Cards to make some errors and fast. Carpenter is on cruise control.

[bcl412]

Well, good series, guys. On to San Diego.

 

We never seem to score on the west coast either. When do we play a team that will allow us to score again?

[NotSoSober]

Last 1 1/2 games have been some of the most boring baseball I've watched in some time.

Exactly. Hell why not walk Duncan(who hits rightys very well) to face Nick [expletive] Stavinoah(whos a righty) and set up the double play? Plain [expletive] ignorance

[Andy]

Home vs Pittsburgh next week. We should be fine then. Write off the next five games though.
