18 for 18 in stolen bases allowed by Chris Young.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fontenot stole second base

[Soul]

Wrigley Field is going to be quite a rough homecoming for this team right now. If they lose today, the boos are going to be out from the 1st pitch on.

As well they should. Nobody should complain about it either. This team has it coming.

 

I understand the fans have a right to boo, but booing a team that is already pressing incredibly is pretty ignorant. Its not like these guys arent wanting to get hits, score runs, and win games. Booing them does nothing, as Im sure they are pretty embarrassed with their play without the fans making it worse. Home is where you are supposed to be able to go during rough times, and receive praise.

 

If you can't boo a team for a performance so bad that it's starting to approach historical levels, then when can you boo a team?

 

What exactly does booing the home team accomplish? Do you think booing them is going to make them play better? Do you think they dont know theyve played like [expletive] all week? I just dont see the point

 

Accomplishing something isn't the point. The point is to express displeasure.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 8-4 when they steal a base.... 13-16 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Tryptamine]

What's the tally now, 3 runs in the last 50 innings?

[haubrich91]

Son of a ***** Soto. RUN FASTER.

[cubswin2009]

lol lose weight Soto.

[rynefan]

LOL, Fontenot is the team's big hitter right now.

[Friendly Confines]

I really wanted Chris Young to throw a perfect game

280 doesn't get down the line like 230.

 

BTW, who brings Woo-woo to these things?

[rynefan]

280 doesn't get down the line like 230.

 

BTW, who brings Woo-woo to these things?

 

Good question about Woo-Woo. I was at a series in Arizona in 2001 I think it was and he was there, walked right by me, couldn't believe it.

[Soul]

I say bench Soto until he drops 20 pounds.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hundley flied out to center field

[rynefan]

I say bench Soto until he drops 20 pounds.

 

That was some slow baserunning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Headley grounded an IF single to the pitcher

[haubrich91]

Dumb.

[ctcf]

Wow, I really can't remember the last time the offense was actually this bad.

[Hall7810]

Cubs have him listed at 225.

[cubswin2009]

Wow, I really can't remember the last time the offense was actually this bad.

2006

[cubswin2009]

Heh Derrek is sick? I'd be sick too watching this pathetic team.

[rynefan]

I really do feel for our starters. Pitchers that is. Edited May 24, 2009 by rynefan
