5/18 Rockies (Chacin) @ Idiots (Silva) - 7:05 CST, CSN

Wow. Terrible call on that double play. As a Cubs fan, I'll take it, but that was really bad.

[J.R.]

Pile on now.

[JonJayCutler]

Brenly just said Lou doesn't like giving up outs via the bunt...

It's true. He prefers to give up outs on the basepaths.

[Sammy Sofa]

Dammit. I love it when the suicide squeeze goes down.

[JonJayCutler]

Lol. I like Silva.

[Sammy Sofa]

I didn't see the replay; did that loose ball actually hit Silva's bat? It looked/sounded like it missed it.

 

NICE!

Barely.

Yes it did. He caught a piece of it right before it hit the catcher's mitt.

Huh, Rockies have lost 10 of their last 11 at Wrigley.

Yeah that's right, we won the last game of the 06 season against them, we swept them in 07 (the series where the fan attacked Howry after he blew a 5 run lead in the 9th), swept them in a 4 game series in 08, split a 2 game series in 09 (the first 2 home games of the year), and won the first yesterday

[Sammy Sofa]

That fan who charged Howry was lucky he got tackled before he got to the mound. Howry was staring him down the whole way and likely would have mangled that kid brutally.

[Old Style]

Nice glove work there by Aramis.

yeah it would have been Farnsworth vs. Wilson but worse.

[Careless]

That was an interesting time for Silva to get so excited.

edit: just dropped his ERA under 3

[JonJayCutler]

Cy freaking Silva.

[Sammy Sofa]

How the [expletive] is Silva doing this?

[MWV]

Baffling.

 

Also: Geovany Soto walks. This is akin to saying "horses run" or wind blows".

There was also that game in 08' when the wind was blowing out (Friday day game I believe) at like 30MPH and we came back from way down in the 8-9th innings. I think Corpas gave up a lot of the runs. I remember DeRosa hit a HR that likely would have maybe made it 30-40ft short of the wall in left-center if it had been just about any other day.

I was there. We scored 6 runs in the 7th and I think 3 more in the 8th.

I was at that game. Came back from a 9-1 deficit. :D

[Careless]

theory: Silva didn't know he had only thrown 70 pitches and thought he was done after 6 innings, leading to that display at the end of the 6th and his performance now.

[JonJayCutler]

That sucked.
