05/25 Pittsburgh (Maholm) @ CUBS (Dempster) 7:05pm, WGNTV

[hawkcub]

Bob just candidly called out Davidson like it was nothing

And he was right. To many times the umps want to be the main event. Tonight is an example of this.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hoffpauir walked

[weis21]

Hoffpauir has looked fairly comfortably up there against lefties tonight. Probably more so than I would have imagined.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Davidson better watch out. Lilly is likely to cut off his head and stuff it in the freezer with the heads of the other co-eds he's killed.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Freel sacrificed, 1-4, Hoffpauir to second

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 5-2 when they execute a sac bunt.... 16-19 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[weis21]

Bob: Normally you wouldn't bunt a guy over for your number 8 and number 9 hitters.

 

Uh, yeah Bob, especially when one of those hitters is Aaron Miles.

[Cynosure]

What did Lilly do... I missed it.

[bcl412]

Ok, I'm watching on Gamecast (keeps me from breaking things during a losing streak). How did Lilly get tossed when he's not playing?

[Butterscup1679666578]

what the hell happened? lilly got tossed?

Between innings, it seems Lilly went out and told Davidson he sucks.

[UMFan83]

Off topic: There is nothing nicer than coming home from being away all weekend and finding out your roommate had some people over and a total of 26 beers were left in the fridge for consumption, including 5 Magic Hats and 4 Red Stripes.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Miles struck out swinging , 2-3

[Little Slide Rooter]

what a dumb inning.

MMMM beers...

 

Wish I could have beers... I'll settle for the Vicodin they gave me for some reason last night for having Pneumonia.

[weis21]

Ascanio is going to bat, yet Freel bunts? :-k

 

Heady move Cubs

[NotSoSober]

That's gotta be the dumbest thing I've ever seen Lou do. You bunt him over for Miles and Ascanio? Amazing.

[manbearcub]

lou says "ahh, [expletive] it"

[hardcorecubfan]

CUBS are 5-2 when they execute a sac bunt.... 16-19 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

Did we have one on that road trip?

That is a nice little surprise.

I guess Lilly is just going to pick up the emotion that Lou seems to be void of this year.
