07/21 Houston (Myers) @ CUBS (Lilly) 1:20 CDT, WGNTV

[Tryptamine]

Theriot apparently has about a 6 inch vertical.

[Keener98]

Get Lilly the ball! 1st hit of the season!

[Keener98]

This umps strikezone is huge

[Keener98]

Starlin Castro!

[NotSoSober]

Castro is tearin' it up lately

[Buford T Justice]

This umps strikezone is huge

 

I'm listening to it and watching on Gameday and the strike zone for right handed batters looks like it's in the left handed batters box.

[jersey cubs fan]

Theriot with a 554 July OPS, oh wait, just went down to 546, bringing the season to 612.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Tyler has not had a good day at the plate.

[SouthSideRyan]

Did we seriously ground back to the pitcher 3 times in a row?

[jersey cubs fan]

712 July OPS. And since being Ryan Theriot seems to be the most important prerequisite for becoming the Cubs leadoff hitter, he's doing the job.

And Santo is getting pissed at Lilly for giving up a HR.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Could that have been Teds last pitch as a Chicago Cub?

I'm not upset at the HR but, what pisses me off is a not very good player - Feliz - hit it.

I was in Philly watching a game when Felix came up and commented about how much he sucks, he promptly popped one out deep to left.

Lets see, 1 of the hottest hitters on the team on the bench, a close game, runner on, and Lou chooses Soriano to pinch hit instead of Soto? WTf

Soto will probably hit for the pitcher if it gets there.

[Keener98]

Nice at bat Koyie. Maybe you can go talk to the media after the game about the teams poor fundamentals some more...

 

Ugh Why is Theriot taking this at bat. Come on Lou

Or am I experiencing a lag and he seriously let [expletive] 3 fingers bat for himself?

Hill with the Golden Sombrero!

He let him hit, attempt to bunt unsuccessfully, and then swing away with 2 strikes instead of trying to bunt again. Yea I have no idea

[Keener98]

Unexcusable for Soto not to take that at bat instead of Soriano.

[Keener98]

Pinch hit Soto for Colvin against the lefty Lou, this isn't rocket science.

That's just funny bad. I don't know many T-Ball coaches that would have allowed Hill to hit right there.

[bcruise]

How deep was Sori's fly ball?

 

Need a 2 out hit from Colvin now...

[Old Style]

I assume Sori's fly out to CF was shallow if Fukudome couldn't score from 3rd?
