5/21: Cobs (Marshall) @ Cards (Wainwright); 7:15 pm CT, CSN

Pujols now treats baseball like pinball...

 

Honestly, I'd be fine with giving the Cardinals three runs for Pujols hitting the sign like that.

 

Hit the smallest letter too... should have been a x3 multiplier anyways.

 

I'm also willing to give him symbolism points for hitting the Big Mac sign.

 

That's what he hit? Awesome.

[Bixby]

OK so I guess I'm blacked out on MLB Network and that's why the Red Sox game is on instead. How cool.

[cubswin2009]

At this point the Cubs are better off taking an automatic out instead of having Bradley hit.

Same thing with Fontenot

Yea for those of you following along on the radio/gameday... Pujols crushed a "line drive" that drilled the neon Big Mac sign that lines the upper deck... he hit the "I".

Frankly, at this point the Cubs are better off flying to San Diego and regrouping.

Anyone in the thread tonight actually been to the Cardinals' "new" park? How does it rate?

[illiniguy]

God we are not a lot of fun to watch right now.

[Rusch33]

Is Brian Roberts available anymore?

I thought it sucked for a brand new park. Kansas City did a better job with their renovations.

Brian Roberts was never available.

It's nice but nothing mind-blowing.

What's bad about the park?

What's bad about the park?

 

The city it's located in and the players that play in it 81 times a year.

[Rusch33]

Who's out there (besides DeRosa) we can get to play 2nd?

Ray Durham (maybe).

 

2 nice k's by Marshall.

I really didn't like the sightlines. I also felt it came off like they were trying to remake Wrigley Field combined with Camden Yards.

[Sammy Sofa]

Nice inning for Marshall.

well duh.

 

i'm just saying, it's a nice stadium, clean and whatnot, but if you're going for amenities or anything its nothing spectacular.

[BigSlick]

I like that the recent Lee resurgence has come at a time when every single one of our players has become a useless bloke

 

Seriously, you couldn't at least have been hitting when it would have been useful, Lee? I'm uselessly mad now I'm gonna start ranting about "garbage time" stat hoarding

[bhogg]

tap dancing Christ, guys. . ..I thought the Cardinals were blowing us out.

[illiniguy]

Why have we quit taking pitches?

[Outshined_One]

Why have we quit taking pitches?

 

Dusty Baker finally figured out how to cast a hex on this team from afar.

Well the way we have been playing 1-0 isn't much different than 10-0
