May 27 Cubs (Zambrano) vs Pirates (Duke) 1:20 CST

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have hit 6 triples this season.... all against the starting pitchers

CUBS are 4-1 when they hit at least one triple.... 18-21 when they don't

CUBS are 14-6 when they score first in the game.... 8-16 when they don't

CUBS are 11-3 when they score in the first inning.... 11-19 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

I know Reed hits lefties well and that is why he is on the team, but I'd like to see Kosuke get a couple of starts against lefties since he's seeing the ball so well this year.

Now this is how you start a game!

[Jake]

I like this scoring thing. It's fun!

Don't you have students to teach?

Thanks for being the Pirates

[Outshined_One]

Routine double play ball?

 

Sweet.

[Guest]

Reed tried to end the inning.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I'll take the free run.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Johnson grounded into a FC, 6-4, D Lee out at second, Bradley scored, Johnson to second on a throwing error, E4

[laurens]

Bradley's over .200

 

Also, I love Gameday Premium. Nearly instant video :D

School's out, bitch!

[Jake]

Many on the Pittsburgh Post Gazette board were wondering why we're playing 2 back up infielders with a ground ball pitcher on the mound.

 

I'm wondering that too.

I'm not questioning it. :D

CUBS are 15-7 when the opponent commits at least 1 error.... 7-15 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[laurens]

Can somebody that's watching the game tell me if Soto has lost weight? He's played way better in May and I'm wondering if it's due to weight loss.

Ron's happy birthday wish to Pat and the ensuing conversation was absolutely hysterical.
