7/9 Cubs @ Marlins. 5:05 PM CSN Still dont care.

[sweetpeteman]

they are actually bringing in another pitcher to face Macias... what a waste of a pitcher.

[Omar]

Macias with a hit :shock:

 

Walker scores.

[Outshined_One]

Macias comes through!

[Blueheart05]

Macias comes through with a double!

[Jon]

Ha. Walked Lee to get to Macias...and it bites 'em in the butt!

[oldcubsfan]

Intentionally walking Lee to get to Macias with first base open. A drunken little league coach could have called that.

 

That worked out well.

[otis89]

Fear the Gremlin!

[Coach C]

Yay for insurance runs.

[sweetpeteman]

even a blind squirrel...

 

unnfortunantly, this means Macias will be on the team for a while longer now.

[Jon]

Barrett sure is looking good at the plate right now.

[PackLandVA]

Fear the Gremlin!

 

He'll start tomorrow

[Blueheart05]

Barrett with an RBI single. Lee & Macias score!

 

SWEET

[Omar]

Lee & Macias score on Barrett's single.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 25-12 when they make at least 10 hits, 16-32 when they don't.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[KatJ]

And the hit parade continues. Can we keep these guys and let the other bums stay tied up for a while longer?

[otis89]

Woot! I love Barrett!

[Omar]

What's Burnitz eating? Tobacco, sun flower seeds, gum??

[Stomper90]

What's impressive is that it all happened with two outs.

 

Eeek... 4 runs a game Maddux goes tomorrow. Save some runs!

[otis89]

Ugh. Rough day for Burnitz.

[sherwood921]

What's Burnitz eating? Tobacco, sun flower seeds, gum??

 

I was wondering the same thing...in fact...which of the current Cubs chew tobacco?

[BeerHere]

Does Barrett really have three walks today? Dusty will probably bench him tomorrow for not being aggressive enough.

[Guancous]

Macias's average is up to .278. His OBP is probably still sub .300 but that's still a marked improvement over the Lenny Harris days.

[Blueheart05]

Looked like Novoa was getting ready to come in instead of Dempster... I understand protecting Ryan's arm but he better be ready to jump in there if Novoa has any problems.

Burnitz...just because you don't like Perez doesn't mean you should go lying about him.
