4/4 Cubs (Wood) @ Pittsburgh (McDonald) 11:35 AM CT WGN/720

[Banedon]

Kinda wasn't marmol's fault on that one....he got ahead of the hitter 0-2 and induced a weak ground ball.

 

No benefits of the doubt for Marmol.

[Little Slide Rooter]

He meant to do that.

[RynoRules]

Wow.

 

Still shouldn't be the closer.

[Sammy Sofa]

MIRACLE.

[Careless]

Unless you're apologizing, marmol, shut up.

[mookie]

Hahaha!!! Marmol all jacked up!

 

Dear God,

 

No more Marmol.

 

Thanks,

 

Cubs Fans

[UMFan83]

That was Ryan Dempster circa-2007 type of save

[inari]

If Marmol is still the closer after today, Sveum should be fired.

 

Yeah and executed too!!!

[Bryants Disco Ball]

MIRACLE.

 

x2

[sneakypower]

I NEVER DOUBTED HIM FOR A MINUTE

[pitchcs]

LMAO, nice win?

[weis21]

Never lost faith :-"

 

CUBS WIN!!

[illiniguy]

Still in first place

[RynoRules]

Unless you're apologizing, marmol, shut up.

 

I think it was more of, "Yeah! They can't demote until the next time!"

[Guest]

Marmol with the Rowengartner special.

 

Fun fact: He lowered his ERA and WHIP with this outing.

STOP.

 

I laughed.

[Banedon]

So....that homer was kind of a good thing.

[Old Style]

Jeez, I hate Marmol. Thank god we escaped today but we can't let him continue to close.

[weis21]

Carlos just got tired of all those people talking about boring games

[bcl412]

I'm not sure how that didn't go to extras.

Yeesh.

 

Seriously though, the guy is throwing BP out there. He's not going to get many ML hitters out with that stuff. On the other hand, I don't want him pitching the 7th or 8th either.

[Burtonbell]

Wood looked really good today, I hope he keeps it up!

 

Marmol on the other hand...

[Guest]

Not bad for a morning game.
