I know it's been mentioned before, but thanks for all the work you do, Fred!

[Fred Hornkohl]

I can see where you would. I had no idea myself that the CUBS have had such a hard time with the Pirates over the years.

[El Duderino]

There was one year when the Cubs destroyed the Pirates, probably '07 or '08, but besides that... ew.

in 08, we probably had a run differential of +100 against them

[Jake]

Lineup:

 

Elvis, PRNW, Cutch, GI Jones, McGehee, El Toro, B, B & B

 

Interesting stat: We're 13-6 with BBB at the bottom of the lineup.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Elvis, PRNW, Cutch, GI Jones, McGehee, El Toro, B, B & B

 

Stop that. Just no.

[Sammy Sofa]

Shut up. Do your thing, Jake.

[Yeti]

kinda diggin how efficient Samardzija has been tonight

[Smack]

Shark has been fun to watch tonight. Should have a no hitter but he watched McCutchen running down the line instead of covering first.

[d_money]

This has the makings of a heartbreaker. Hope I'm wrong

[Schwarber Fan]

If Marmol comes in, absolutely.

He hasn't blown a save since April

[Smack]

lol, Shark pacing and swearing to himself in the dugout... guess he's not coming back out... he should...

[Sammy Sofa]

Nice back to back patient AB's.

[bukie]

lol, Shark pacing and swearing to himself in the dugout... guess he's not coming back out... he should...

...not be pitching 110 pitches in a meaningless game in July when he's going to be on an innings limit and is probably getting fairly close to it already.

[Guest]

I think I'd let Shark at least take the mound here.

[Schwarber Fan]

oh joy

he was at 99, you can let him come out and see if he can get a quick 1-2-3. obviously if he throws many pitches or a runner gets on you can pull him immediately with Marmol...

 

whatever, Cubs win!

[Guest]

13 pitches, 11 strikes

[Sammy Sofa]

Awesome pitching, Batman & Robin...Cubs win!

[Schwarber Fan]

Shark week came early!

[Guest]

Shark was awesome. :D
