[Irrelevant Dude]

Only one hit to show for it today, but Aramis is looking much better. Let's hope he can continue hitting the ball hard and it isn't just another blip on the radar.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Wow, Cubs are winning. Thanks in part to Tyler Colvin. vs. a lefty. How bout that.

And he struck out in his only at bat against a RHP. He is the anti-platoon!

[C.C.]

Holy hell that carried.

[J.R.]

Wow.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I couldnt tell if that Soriano shot was all wind of the camera man just thought it was a routine pop up.

[JonJayCutler]

What the hell? Only at this park.

[Schwarber Fan]

good signs all over the place.

 

it's a shame we'll need a ridiculous winning streak to get back in the race.

It happened on Juan Pierre's team. Anything is possible.

[inari]

Nice to see Starlin get an extra baser.

[PrimeTime]

Colvin again!

[Irrelevant Dude]

3 hits, 4 RBI, all vs. left handed pitching.

[JonJayCutler]

Please don't be a fluke, Colvin.

So, the pattern I'm seeing for the Cubs in three game series this season is lose the first two game in horrific fashion, then win the third game by scoring lots of runs.

[coldsteel]

Whoa -- A week's worth of offense!

The Cubs have lost 8 of their last 9 series and have lost the series opener in all 9, but have not been swept in any of the 8 series losses. They've been extremely good at salvaging a game for whatever reason.

 

Cue the Marmol collapse.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Big surprise......Marmol can't seem to find the plate and wants to make a 5 run lead as interesting as possible.

That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled, that, and the fear of losing my job. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone work just hard enough not to get fired.

[InconspicuousZ28]

This is setting up to be an epic loss.

[inari]

Is this real life?

[InconspicuousZ28]

Is this real life?

 

It sure is....this is Cobs baseball, 2010 style.

[InconspicuousZ28]

Winning run comes to the plate.

[PrimeTime]

If they blow this...I dont even know..

[Fro]

Marmol has no control at all, need to get someone else out there.

[inari]

Strike 1 was a pretty fortunate call.
