[Guest]

I take issue with the Cubs trivia question today: Who was the last Cubs rookie to hit .300 for the season?

 

the answer they gave is Madlock. But Dwight Smith hit like .320 his rookie year - he just didn't have enough AB to qualify for the batting title. But that stipulation wasn't mentioned in the question.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Wallace tripled to left center field

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 7-23 when the opponent triples.... 68-63 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guest]

Byrd was TOTALLY lost on that fly ball.

 

And brett wallace walrused his way all the way to third base for the triple.

[Guest]

Yep...Dwight Smith hit .324 in 381 PA in 1989.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Quintero grounded out to the catcher, unassisted

[Fred Hornkohl]

Manzella singled to center field, Wallace scored

[Guest]

Quintero grounded out to the catcher, unassisted

That ball couldn't have gone more than 4 inches. quintero got tagged out still in the batters box.

 

and it's 4-0! #9 here we come! :D

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 52-24 when they allow fewer than 4 runs.... 23-59 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Figueroa sacrificed, to first base , unassisted, Manzella to second

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 15-39 when the opponent executes a sac bunt.... 60-47 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!
