At least they're not stranding baserunners anymore.

[Schwarber Fan]

Colvin looks horrible out there

 

He's screwed when he falls behind in the count.

Wow, this one hurts a little bit. First of the year, really

Heisey flied out to center field

[Guest]

amazing how fast the Red Sox caught us

 

I didn't know the Cubs were competing with the Red Sox for a playoff spot.

[wvcbxl]

Inconsistent strikezone indeed - Kerry not getting the calls like the reds

[Fred Hornkohl]

Stubbs grounded out to second, 4-3
