Garza's in my top ten most hated players. Destroy him.

[Sammy Sofa]

I feel a double digit night coming on. Cubs pound them into submission, 11-2. All of their runs are scored in the first 3 innings.

I like Matt Garza alright enough, but he sucks this year and we should pound him (and we haven't really to this point)
