6/26 Mets (Gee) @ Cubs (Wells), 7:05 PM, WCIU

[Fro]

In other news, Anthony's dad is the official scorer tonight.

 

The Mets announcers are throwing a fit... of course they were making fun of the Cubs for 1969 earlier.

Does he also have broad shoulders?

[PrimeTime]

Rizzo now batting .667 on the year

[Smack]

That was a pretty terrible swing by Hair. Rizzo looking good so far.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hey, Fred, how do the Cubs fare when Rizzo doubles in a run?

 

 

TBD :wink:

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Irrelevant Dude]

Good lord Lahair, that ball bounced two feet in front of the plate.

I really wish he would be good again. This lineup would look halfway decent 1 through 5. The same can't be said with Reed Johnson in the 5 hole.

I believe this man just photobombed his own picture.

Welcome !!

 

Thanks Fred. I was on the old ESPN board, many years ago, under the same name. Nice to see some of the same crew here.

[Smack]

Rough night for Valbuena

[Tryptamine]

Rough night for Valbuena

 

2 errors, the fall going around 3rd and the dropped foul ball. It doesn't get a lot worse than that.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 5-8 (.385) when they commit 2 or more errors.... 20-40 (.333) when they don't :scratch:

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guest]

I think Rizzo deserves his name in the parenthesis over Wells.

 

Don't think I didn't think about that.

 

And holy crap, JC is alive.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Get ready for another Rizzo AB this inning !!!

 

 

Go CUBS !!
