5/29 White Sox (Danks) at Cubs (Feldman) 1:20pm CSN

[Southpaw191679666239]

PPD game leads to another game thread from yours truly.

 

The "series" shifts to Wrigley Field for a day game against the South Siders.

 

Today features Jordan Danks' more talented (?) brother who has no record yet and an ERA of 4.50

 

The Cubs send Scott "Babe Ruth" Feldman to the bump, sporting a record of 4-4 and an ERA of 2.80 (victim of circumstance?).

 

 

Danks.. word of advice... don't lay one down the pipe to Feldman. It'll wind up next to Glenallen Hill's ball on the rooftop! :lol:

 

 

Go Cubs

So the Cubs broadcast is CSN and CWS guys are on WGN? Guess my TV will be on mute this afternoon.

Gotta clobber the WhiteSox some more. Go CUBS Win!

Not sure how I doubled up this post, but for this one I will just change it up by adding a note that somebody named Mike Huff is filling in.

Let's win these next two so we don't have to wait on the make-up to claim the Crosstown Cup!

What happens if they tie? I forget.

Current Cup holder (in this case the Sox) keeps it.

I'm pretty sure the starting pitchers are all locked in a pen to fight it out. The last pitcher standing is awarded a feast of turkey and brandy, and his team wins the treasured crosstown cup.

thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard. At least make it run differential or something.

 

then again, the crosstown cup is the dumbest thing ive ever heard as well.

I thought they were getting rid of that damn thing

Well, he has the option of letting his teammates have turkey and brandy while he goes hungry, or having it himself and his teammates get nothing.

 

It takes a bold man to take it himself.

The Score said "sore throat", but Matt Spiegl said he didn't want to sit so close to Stoney in the crowded broadcast booth.

This is the 26th unique lineup Sveum has used in 51 games this season.

[DiamondMind]

good effort dayan

[sneakypower]

is the wind really swirling or is Viciedo just that comical out there in left?

[jersey cubs fan]

ugly defense gifts DeJesus a double

[DiamondMind]

comical out there in left

[jersey cubs fan]

that was nice work by Castro on the inside pitch

[Hairyducked Idiot]

As soon as I saw that hit, I was assuming DeJesus would get thrown out at home. Maybe Bell is learning.

[MWV]

Nice AB by Castro.

[jersey cubs fan]

What the F are you doing flailing like that on a 3-1 pitch Rizzo?
