What did Garlin say yesterday?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Red Sox announcers have spent the last three innings whining about the size of the visiting clubhouse.

[Fred Hornkohl]

[Little Slide Rooter]

Demp's pitching like a guy who wants a ticket off this rock.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS held the opponents to 3 hits in a game.... Wed 02 May 2012 (3 hits) in a 3-1 win at Cincinnati

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Little Slide Rooter]

Castro looked at a beautiful hanging breaking ball for strike 2, then whiffed at one he couldn't come close to reaching for strike 3. Ugly.

 

OBP Watch: .307. Two more bad games from dropping below .300.

Tony Campana does everything except get to first base.

 

It would be wonderful if he could get that OBP into the .350 range.

What about when they lead at the end of the 7th inning? Because I have to figure that's going to be the case at this point.

The prophecy is true. He's turning into Gary Templeton before out very eyes.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Did Dempster come out for a curtain call? Just curious.

But can Dempster be as good against the AL?

Apart from having to endure the NESN feed, this game is fun to watch here in Belgium. 8-)

[SouthSideRyan]

But can Dempster be as good against the AL?

 

It's not the numbers man, he just doesn't pitch like an AL pitcher should.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 16-10 when they draw 4 or more walks.... 5-32 when they don't
