First two batters reach, I wonder how the Cubs will blow this chance.

[Sammys Boombox]

Oh, runners in scoring position. Time to throw the approach out the window.

Come on, Pena. Prove me wrong.

[TruffleShuffle]

We keep that guy around for his defense.

 

don't forget his great leadership, this team wouldn't have that sterling 15-18 record without a solid veteran hand like koyie.

Bloop singles FTW.

[NotSoSober]

Tie ball game! Garza continues to go nuts

[TruffleShuffle]

13 singles, 0 XBH.... hahaha

[Sammys Boombox]

Sure would have been nice for Soto to get all of those big AB today and receive that throw from Fukudome in the 7th. Edited May 11, 2011 by Sammy's Boombox

thanks koyie... 6 runners left on base and a dropped ball that would've prevented a run. what an utterly useless player.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Only guy in the CUBS' lineup that hasn't left a man on base is Kerry Wood.

[NotSoSober]

Just a stupid, stupid team

[Schwarber Fan]

Just a stupid, stupid team

 

yep... Cubs would have had 0 runners advance on that play

Soto left with an injury.

[Schwarber Fan]

Daniel Descalso LOL

[Fred Hornkohl]

Oh.... horsefeathers !!!

[InconspicuousZ28]

Cubs doing what they do best.....giving up runs in the half inning immediately following runs having been scored in the offensive inning.

[TruffleShuffle]

oh look another guy nobody has ever heard of coming up in the clutch for the cards.

I am aware. Not a knock on Quade.

[Schwarber Fan]

oh come on

[NotSoSober]

That's probably a triple if Berkman is still out there

[Cronos006]

oh come on

 

BABIP giveth, and BABIP taketh away.

miguel's batista ERA has apparently been sprinkled with pixie dust, considering that his whip is 1.71.

Yep. After watching that inning it definitely seems that way. Made a lot of bad pitches and very few good pitches but didn't even let a runner reach 2nd.

[TruffleShuffle]

he's a bad, old pitcher who shouldn't even be pitching for a major league team, let alone throwing important 8th innings. i guess that's proof that even the great tony larussa puts too much emphasis on stupid ERA.

[NeifiIsMyHomeBoy]

Defense has been atrocious tonight. Assuming Soriano doesn't fall down and catches that triple we've given them at least three runs.
