That or Molina needs to be struck down by a bolt of lightning. Either way, I'm good.

[Sosa21MVP]

Double play!

[Sosa21MVP]

Carpenter has thrown 37 pitches already, it would be nice if the Rangers could make him throw 20+ more pitches in the 3rd inning.

[Flames24Rulz]

Of course Carpenter's starting to get into a groove.

Yeah. He got through that inning on 14 pitches.

[Flames24Rulz]

Time to start getting hammered.

[EpsteinCubs]

I'm way ahead of you on that one! :stickman:

[TruffleShuffle]

i told you, pretty sure he was on the cover of my baseball america prospect handbook for like 3 years in a row. not sure how you guys missed this. all his minor league games were selling out.

two points of optimism:

1. new, competent (very good!) cub management

2. win or lose, all those people still have to live in/around st louis.

It would be awesome if Harrison wasn't so afraid to throw strikes that he goes to a 3-2 count on every hitter and then throws a meatball that gets just drilled. And it certainly appears that Carpenter has found a groove and the Rangers hitters are starting to feel the pressure at this point. They're lunging and swinging for the fences and Carp keeps flipping curve balls up there for them to wave at.

[UMFan83]

Chris Carpenter has officially settled in and has at least 3 more shutdown innings in him.

[EpsteinCubs]

Alright I'm done watching. There was no way the Rangers were winning anyways.

[Sosa21MVP]

Wait, Freese made an out. Maybe there is hope.

[Epsteenie]

Carpenter has to be one of the biggest d-bags in the game of baseball.

[javy knows my name]

Freese looks absolutely lost every time the ball comes to him at third, so OF COURSE he makes that catch.

 

[expletive] the [expletive] Cardinals

[TruffleShuffle]

sac bunt with a fast #2 hitter in the 5th inning, great work ron washington.

[El Duderino]

Carpenter is unquestionably the biggest d-bag in the game of baseball.

 

Agreed.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Carpenter with 78 pitches through 5 innings. The Rangers really let him off the hook.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Is it just me, or could all three of those balls been called strikes ???

[Exile on Waveland]

Oh, nice going. Walk the dude hitting in front of Pujols. Excellent.

[TruffleShuffle]

the dude hitting in front of pujols is better than pujols.

[Fred Hornkohl]

WTF... Jerry Layne is not known for having a small strike zone !!

[Epsteenie]

I know I shouldn't be greedy, what with all the good things we've had come our way lately, but is it too much to ask to see the entire city of St. Louis devestated, including those puds Joe Buck, Tim McCarver, Jim Edmonds, Tony LaRussa, Ryan Theriot, and Chris Carpenter. I want a Vancouver style meltdown of crushed dreams and city-wide angst.
