8/5 Cubs (Germano) @ Dodgers (Blanton) 3 pm WGN

[Andy]

The Cubs' schedule gives no indication that this game is available on TV. I'm confused by this. Edited August 5, 2012 by Andy

I'm pretty sure I saw a commercial on Friday advertising this as a WGN game.

[Andy]

And so it is.

Brett Jackson is up just in time for his Stats Sunday!

[Irrelevant Dude]

Out of all the places in the lineup to put Jackson, #2 seems like the one he is least suited for.

Haha two batters in and Bob already heating the umpires. He's so awesome.

[Guest]

Yeah, Brett. The big league umps aren't that much better than at AAA.

[Old Style]

Stupid umpires.

 

Yay Rizzo!

[Old Style]

D'oh!

[haubrich91]

Ahhhhh Rizzo.

[Guest]

I'm sure the Chicago media will get on Rizzo like they got on Castro for not knowing the number of outs.

[CincyCubsFan]

I doubt it. We're talking about Anthony, not Antonio Rizzo, remember?

[Cubswin11]

Beautiful Sunday in socal, the Dodgers are in the thick of contention for a playoff spot, they just added 3 guys (two being fairly high profile guys in Victorino/Hanley) to help them make the final push and the stadium is half full. Fitting.

[Cubswin11]

Walk for Jackson :yahoo:

Good eye Brett.

[rawaction]

Hanley is terrible defensively. But Brett gets props for going hard.

[haubrich91]

Nice seeing Jackson taking the four pitch walk.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Blanton is quite the red-ass.
