Baserunning!

Why wasn't that Stewart hitting?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

0-for-3 on the year getting home runners on 3rd with less than two outs (though one scored later in the inning).

"This is one of those situations where you really want to get a hit, but you know it might not happen."

I'm excited to see if Dolis is a long-term piece for us.

[Ronnys Cannon]

Why wasn't that Stewart hitting?

 

My question exactly. I also would have thought DeJesus for Johnson. I'm fine with Johnson/Mather vs the LHP's, but then don't have them in for important AB's late in the game against RHP.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Liked what I saw from Dolis, but he does need to get the ball down a little. He was throwing strikes, but a lot of those fastball were being left up a bit.

[Smack]

Those were some uninspired at bats....

[haubrich91]

Here comes Wood...

These last two innings have been the downside of stacking your lineup with lefty-mashers.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Here comes Wood...

 

I'm going to assume that's a guess, because there's no way Sveum would be that bullheaded.

Now Stewart comes in, lol.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Dolis only threw eight pitches last inning. Why not give him the eighth?

[Ronnys Cannon]

And now Stewart and DeJesus come in to play the field. Why didn't they hit vs. the RHP? Oh well, good luck to Wood.

Twitter is man's new best friend.

who is this dude in kerry wood's uni

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Ewwww. Wood isn't good enough to be your Official Eighth Inning Guy, and regardless his arm needs to be babied a bit and we've got other guys who need work.

[Yeti]

no disrespect to Len and Bob, but having Pat announcing over the TV video feed is the bomb!

[haubrich91]

Oh lord.

I'm too busy hating most of the players to have any room in my heart to hate Sveum, but he's trying very hard to push himself into the picture.

I've just come to accept that all managers are varying degrees of crap.

[apete6]

Might be time for Kerry Wood to hang it up. Too bad Theo had to give in to the meatballs on this one.

[illiniguy]

Jesus woods got nothing.
