4/5 Arizona (Enright) @ Chicago (Cashner) 1:20PM CSN

[sneakypower]

nice to see us get these gift runs off walks, too

[CubmanPi]

Get that man some more playing time!

[UMFan83]

Only the Cubs and Diamondbacks intentionally walk the bases loaded, bring in another pitcher and he immediately walks a run in on 4 pitches.

[BeerHere]

Colvin has been really patient today. Love seeing that.

Seconded

[Little Slide Rooter]

the 4 pitch walk by Colvin was in a way more impressive than a granny.

[Rob]

Soriano coming up with the bases juiced, and then it's the pitchers spot. Think Pena takes the at bat if we make it there?

[Sammy Sofa]

Nice AB, Tyler.

[inari]

Thanks for playing, Patterson. You made a valuable contribution.

Hard to get excited about it when apparently he has said he doesn't like to walk (don't have a quote on it... heard it somewhere along the way in the ~50 hrs of sports radio I hear a week).

[Cubs Fan Dan]

I have been extremely impressed with everything I have seen from TyCo. He has not looked bad at all defensively either. Hopefully he can keep improving his approach because his power is legit.

[CubColtPacer]

Colvin has struck out 3 times in just 13 plate appearances but he's also walked 3 times already.

Even if he's just taking pitches for the sole purpose of finding a good pitch to hit, I'm fine with that.

That's because it's called hitting, Dude.

[Guest]

Looks like Russell is pitching the eighth because he's batting here.

[Rob]

Letting Russell bat? Wow.

[sneakypower]

oh lord, this can't really be happening

[Little Slide Rooter]

BTW, I can safely say Ive never heard of any of the pitchers the D Backs have thrown at us this afternoon.

[CubmanPi]

[expletive] Alfredo. Other than that clutch RBI single and those two clutch homeruns, he hasn't done crap ALL season.

[Rob]

Interesting...

[Guest]

Just take, don't risk it.

I thought his name was Adolpho?

[Guest]

That was a much better AB than I thought Russell was going to have.

[Rob]

Damn.

 

Oh well, two run lead.

 

Let's hope Russell can get through the 8th.

[inari]

Would've liked to get our 3 run lead back, but that works.
