8/25 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Giants (Cain), 9:15, WGN

[Guest]

To kill the time before first pitch, what is your favorite Cubs related memory at AT&T Park?

 

Here are 3 of mine:

 

-Maddux win 300

-Soriano HR in the All Star Game

-Random game from maybe 2008 or 2009 where Lincecum was dominating the Cubs through 8 but then the bats came alive and score 2 in the 9th to win 2-1

 

how could you not bring up prior vs bonds

[Sammys Boombox]

Who was our crappy pitcher who nearly gave up a Bonds bomb that was robbed to dead center? And who robbed it?

 

Edit: Found it. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=260509126

Didn't Juan Pierre rob a home run from Bonds that would have tied Aaron or something like that.

 

Looked it up, it was Ruth at 714

[Sammy Sofa]

Juan Pierre robbing Bonds of a HR was unexpected. Wasn't it a milestone-tying one?
