Castro coming through.

[Careless]

how obvious is the bunt after the coach comes to talk to him like that?

[TruffleShuffle]

the cubs are doing a nice job of getting around lou's overmanaging this half inning.

[Little Slide Rooter]

With the 2 pitchers spots due up, the inning ends here, but it was a fun 1.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 18-7 when they score first in the game.... 5-19 when they don't

CUBS are 12-3 when they steal a base.... 11-23 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[JoshiQ]

how obvious is the bunt after the coach comes to talk to him like that?

 

You know, you'd think in the MAJOR LEAGUES they'd have signals for squeeze bunts and safety squeezes and all sorts of things. I guess not.

[Fred Hornkohl]

K Hill grounded into a FC, 4-6, Castro out at second

[woodchip2153]

the cubs are doing a nice job of getting around lou's overmanaging this half inning.

 

the problem is the meatheads will credit the steals and bunts and stuff for igniting the offense.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Catcher on first and pitcher up. Ideal time for a hit and run, right?

Brock and Hubbs, back to back, first inning against the Cardinals in the summer of '63.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Rasmus struck out swinging

[Andy]

That hurts. Long time to go without 2 triples in a single game.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Freese called out on strikes

[TruffleShuffle]

that chunker had two triples in a game???

[GlassCow]

Silva continues to be one of my favorite Cubs of all-time. Getting rid of Milton would have put him in this category anyway, but the gravy is so nice to savor.

[otis89]

Muskat says the last Cub with two triples was Jose Macias 5/14/04 at San Diego.

 

that chunker had two triples his career???

 

Fixed.
