Sigh.

[E.J.]

Seriously Lou? Seriously? Come on.

[Butterscup1679666578]

expected

[bcl412]

If game cast is correct than Dan Haren was walked with the bases loaded to make it 3-1 Arizona.

 

Why would you hit and run with Soriano at the plate?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano struck out swinging , Bradley caught stealing, 2-4

[BigSlick]

Jesus...watching Marmol is like going on a rollercoaster ride

 

and his BAA the last three years is like .150. he's so ridiculous when he just throws strikes... or even if he walks 1 man every 2 innings he's amazing.

He plays the game against himself. The batter rarely beats him, he really just plays the game against an imaginary dude standing there for a strike zone.

 

He loses this game too much though.

[Guest]

Are the rumors true? Did Soriano actually hit a homer?

[Guest]

now, why would you hit and run there?

Nice Fonty. Dammit Lou.

[BCVM22]

Return of the sneaky power!

[E.J.]

Soriano and Fontenot with homers in the same game? Is this a dream?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fontenot homered to right center field

[CyHawk_Cub]

Font!! Another guy who I thought wouldn't homer again

[Butterscup1679666578]

sneaky power

[bcl412]

Our underachieving players are coming through tonight (Fontenot may not fall under this category actually).

[TruffleShuffle]

now, why would you hit and run there?

 

because you're lou piniella and apparently there is a clause in your contract that forces you to hit and run every time there is a runner on first base and a 3-2 count.

[genbar]

Yayyyy homers.

[Guest]

wow, this game is starting to look like a non-nightmare.

[illiniguy]

wow, this game is starting to look like a non-nightmare.

We still have two more innings.

[weis21]

Hard to blame Lou, sori is such a great contact hitter after all.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 19-7 when they hit at least 2 HRs.... 26-36 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!
