9/18 Cardinals (Lynn) @ Cubs (Haren) 1:20 CDT, ABC 7

[NonProfitCow]

Cards announcer Al "die in a fire" Hrabosky blaming Lynn's sucking on Molina not catching.

[Guest]

That was almost amazing.

[KatJ]

Lynn got lucky though. Looking at Gameday placement, Starlin could have donged it out easy.

[NonProfitCow]

What does the Cardinals playoff rotation look like if Lynn is gassed? Jaime Garcia didn't look too hot last time either.

Garcia, Wacha, Lackey, Martinez

Oh man, good effort, Haren

First pitch should have gone off the scoreboard.

[Sammy Sofa]

Holy crap; I almost fell out of my chair.

[CubInOK]

Even Haren's out was hit hard.

[CubInOK]

Cubs seeing 4.00 P/PA.

 

Go Cubs !!

[ctcf]

That was a v nice first inning, y'all

[BrockLanders]

If Bryant's on 3rd instead of TLS, he scores on that Lynn bobble.

 

Whatever, we're awesome.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 72-35 (.673) when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 13-26 (.333) when they do

CUBS are 35-12 (.745) when they score in the first inning.... 50-49 (.505) when they don't

CUBS are 62-18 (.775) when they score first in the game.... 23-43 (.348) when they don't

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guancous]

37 pitches for Lynn in the first.

Nice, yes, but even letting them off the hook a little still frightens me. 6 would have been great.

[KatJ]

Okay I gotta get lunch. Keep that lead while I'm away, Haren!

[Andy]

Let's hope the wind knocks down some fly balls so that 4th run not scoring doesn't matter.

[Careless]

I don't think I'll be able to hear that name and not think "fish biscotti"

[Andy]

Oy, don't want to give them extra outs with Haren pitching.

[PrimeTime]

And now Haren will go back to sucking like usual

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are seeing 4.11 P/PA through 1 inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[ctcf]

Damnit, Anthony.

[Guest]

Why is the outfield shading Wong to left center?

[Andy]

Oy, don't want to give them extra outs with Haren pitching.

I didn't want this post to be prescient, dammit

[jersey cubs fan]

coughlin needs to take out wong

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 33-38 (.465) when they commit one or more errors.... 52-23 (.693) when they don't

 

 

GO CUBS !!
