IBB Yorvit?

Nice play by Fox there.

[Soonernation]

LOL, Bob's bagging on the 2nd base ump again

[illiniguy]

Jesus, his faimly was kidnapped. Gotta love venezuela.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Torrealba walked (intentioanlly)

[Soonernation]

Just get the pitcher and Wells will be out of the inning with no damage

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 23-11 when they allow fewer than 3 walks.... 35-39 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Soonernation]

Jesus, his faimly was kidnapped. Gotta love venezuela.

 

 

Which makes me wonder why these guys still live there after making it to the bigs? Even on a minimum salary they could sure as hell afford to move here to the States

[witty alias]

I really don't get all of the negative talk about Fox's defense. I haven't seen every game, but to me, he looks fine at 3rd. Last night Lou pulled him in the 9th for defense. He seems to make every play.

[Soonernation]

Great job by Wells to get out of the inning!!

It's scary when Ozzie Guillen is the best of the choices.

I've heard Z and Cabrera's families are extremely well protected down there. I'm sure at least other stars take similar precautions.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS committed 3 errors in a game.... Thur 30 Apr 09 (3 err) in an 8-2 loss to Florida at Wrigley

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[UMFan83]

Good to see the Bulls heavily concentrate their marketing efforts on that series against the Celtics last spring. I'm fine with that, but somebody might want to tell them we lost that series :)

[OleMissCub]

pervy cameramen. love it.

[Flames24Rulz]

Wells is settling down. Let's get those runs back now.

[Old Style]

Has a player ever assaulted an umpire with a baseball bat?

 

Yeah that guy is currently the 5th OF on the Twins.

Didn't Juan Marichal do that once? Or was that the catcher?

 

Marichal swung and hit the pitcher with his bat.

 

Delmon Young is the one UMFan was referring to.

No, it was the catcher that Marichal hit with the bat. Johnny Roseboro was his name.
