5/7 Reds (Arroyo) @ Cubs (Coleman) 12:10 PM CST, FOX TV

[Andy]

Pena 3-4, with his 3rd HR in what, 4 games? Glad to see him finally hitting.

I along with many others felt that as soon as Pena got 1 homer he was going to get a bunch of them.

what exactly is your point here?

 

do you think supernatural forces are at work against the Cubs or something?

No, regardless of Fukudome's awesomeness, that Baker play is nearly impossible.

Great win. Im going to go out on a limb and say that DeWitt gets the start at 2B with Castro at SS tomorrow.

I worked midnight so I just caught the end of it. Turned it on in the 8th just in time to hear them talk about the NLCS, AGAIN. I was like "[expletive], REALLY"? Turned it off. Came back in the 9th to catch Pena's homer and the rest.

 

Well that was cool. But anytime they talk about that [expletive] everyone should immediately flip the channel. That way they can see a mass dip in #'s. Maybe eventually they'll [expletive] get it.

And if everyone in America goes a day wihout buying gas, they'll have to drop the prices, right?

What, you have a Nielsen box at home?

[Flames24Rulz]

That was a rather nice game to attend today.

[UMFan83]

DeWitt should probably get more playing time. He seems to be taking advantage of his limited opportunities.

Sure was. It ended just in time to beat the rain too.

The question is where. The Cubs 3 second baseman have been the Cubs best 3 infielders so far (who knew we would be saying that after just over a month!)

Yeah, the Cubs are the ONLY MLB TEAM EVER to have an unfortunate or fluke-y ground rule double happen to them.

 

You couldn't possibly have been serious with this, right? It's even more hilarious because you're complaining like the Cubs got cosmically hosed on a ball that Baker got a double off of that almost any CF is going to usually catch and should have been caught today.

I doubt it.

DeWitt always has had the highest ceiling of the 3, not that thats saying a ton. DeWitt can handle 3rd as well, but I believe that Aramis has had a day off recently, but going by his health history, he could use some time off here and there. I think Baker has logged some innings in the OF, but we dont exactly need a 6th outfielder.

The OP here is nonsensical, however, I do find ground rule doubles frustrating, but theres not much to be done about them. The fact is, more often than not, a guy with average to above average speed will score from first on a double. Not always though, and they really cant cange the rule to say, if a guy like Juan Pierre or Rajai Davis are standing on 1st, they score on a GRD, but if its Aramis Ramirez or Paul Konerko, they go to 3rd.

Anyone know where I can get a recording of that game? I caught a Colvin foul ball in the upper deck and never spilled my beer. Perhaps you saw me?

If you tell me the inning, situation, etc and what you were wearing, I can look it up.

Bottom of the 7th, Colvin at bat, foul to the front of the upper deck on slight third base side. Section 417.

 

I was wearing a black North Face jacket with no hat on.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hey, have you looked for this yet? Otherwise, tell me where you go and I'll find it.

 

Thanks

I checked MLB.tv, FOX did not show the stands on any of the foul balls in that AB.

I had a feeling FOX would be stupid like that. Oh well, it's all up here
