Re: Games in which the Cubs are not playing

Yasmani Grandal of the Padres now has 3 HR in his first 13 MLB at bats.

Rammy :)

[Sammy Sofa]

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate you.

[bcl412]

The Pirates are kind of turning into a fun team to watch.

[Sammys Boombox]

Cashner just got hurt warming up between innings and was removed from the game.

[El Duderino]

Some dude on the Orioles has a perfect game through 5.

Through 6 now.

"Just" a strained lat, apparently.

[erik316wttn]

And some dude hit a solo HR out in Seattle to break up the perfect game/no hitter.

Rammy hit a walk off for the Brewers tonight. The Brewers were down 12-11 with 2 outs in the bottom of the 10th and Ramirez went deep to save the game.

They were up 9-2 at one point, and like 11-5 as well.

 

All I could think about when he came up to bat was 2007 when he hit that walk off bomb against the Brewers after the Brewers were up 5-0 in the first thanks to a Kevin Mench opposite field homer off Rich Hill.

 

Not that I am upset about that game or anything...

Don't look now, but Chris Tillman of the O's looks absolutely fantastic.

[bukie]

The Twins have 12 hits and a walk through 4 innings and have plated just 3 runs.

Where on earth did this Mike Fiers guy from the Brewers come from? Entering today, he had 41/8 BB/K with a 2.29 ERA and 1.068 WHIP. Today, he pitched 7.1 with 2 ER and 9/1 BB/K. He was a 22nd round pick in '09 and never sniffed the top 100. I kind of wish the Brewers were contending so we could try to get him for Dempster.

Yankees and Red Sox are tied at 5 at the end of 1 inning.

[bcl412]

Tyler Colvin has two homers off Strasburg.

ventura just got booted and the w sox fans are chanting "@#*& you" over and over at the ump

They're taking a cue from their TV broadcaster...stay classy Sox fans

After he takes the mound tonight, Zack Greinke will have started each of the last three games for the Brewers.

[Cubswin11]

Liriano has 8 k's through 3 IP right now against the A's

Kevin Goldstein's enthusiasm for weird baseball is pretty funny when it actually comes about.

[sneakypower]

WOW...one strike from the win, Kenley Jansen turned his back to the plate between pitches and Everth Cabera stole home on him, and Jansen threw it away in the process, giving up the go-ahead run

Oh my God, that was so awesome.

I think even better than the play itself were the reactions of the fans as the play was happening. There was some dumb woman jumping up and down thinking the Dodgers had won because the ump said the runner was out initially. Then there were a couple of guys having meltdowns. Hilarious.

Casting vote for robot umpires...YER OUT...wait you don't have the ball, my bad.
