CUBS have not given up any runs in extra innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!!

see if Ross can work his best offensive strategy and get a walk.

[ARCubsFan]

Uh why is David Ross bunting for a base hit? Let him swing for the fences.

he has a much better chance of bunting for a hit

A bit tougher when Lester isn't on deck

[Little Slide Rooter]

I'm nearly certain that was the Cubs 300th K of the season. The next highest are the Yankees and Indians with 265 each.

Heh, I was using BBR and checked by league, first NL hitter K's, then AL K's, and must have hit pitcher K's by mistake. Still awful.

no, why is Russell warming up, Joe don't be the typical dumb manager, put Rondon in the game no matter what

[CyHawk_Cub]

Hey a base knock!

[DiamondMind]

calling a russell double to the wall and slow-ass ross getting thrown out at home

[Guest]

That was Ross's first single of the year, and I believe puts his OPS north of .800

 

edit: yep, .836

[Guest]

might have to start separate game threads for non-fatalistic people

[DiamondMind]

We have been getting hosed by bad calls for going on two weeks now!!

[Andy]

This whole thing where David Ross is actually pretty good is making it much harder to hate him

[PrimeTime]

Oh come the [expletive] on

[Guest]

I've never ever seen that called when the runner gets the base like that. How many times has Holiday gone completely out of reach of the bag to nail people and not gotten called?

[ARCubsFan]

I think that's the right call

[DiamondMind]

Guaranteed we learn Maddon got tossed when we return from commercial.

[Guest]

i hate this stupid sport so much some times

[Fred Hornkohl]

I'm not buying that call. No way.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Better him than our only remaining catcher

[kujay]

Yeah that's [expletive].

[Gilby]

Oh come on, that's never called.

There will probably be 10 worse slides than that one today alone. If that's interference(and by letter of the rule it is not), then interference should be a daily occurrence in every game.

[Andy]

That call is chickenshit
