08/23 Atlanta (Minor) @ CUBS (Coleman) 7:05 CDT, CSN TV

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS got 3 HBP in a game.... Thu 15 Jul 2010 (3 HBP) in a 12-6 win over Philadelphia at Wrigley

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pena struck out swinging

[UMFan83]

That was disappointing Pena.

 

Lately I think we fail more than we succeed with runner on 3rd with less than 2 outs.

[Ballgame64]

At some point, I hope someone associated with the Cubs realizes Marlon Byrd has no business playing every day. This is his 44th game played at Wrigley Field with 180 plate appearances and he has 2 home runs and 7 rbis while batting 3-4-5-6 most of the time. So he has driven himself in twice and only 5 other guys all year. People might not like the "old school" stats but those are rather telling of how unproductive he has been all year. He is basically another pitcher in the line-up at home this year.
