7/10 Cubs(maddux) @ Marlins(Leiter) 12:05 WGN. We still suck

[Blueheart05]

Bases loaded

 

Come on D Lee!!!

 

Leiter is leaving...

[otis89]

Bases loaded for Derrek Lee. :shock: Don't get to say that very often.

[muntjack]

Wow. 180 degrees. Wow.

[YearofDaCubs]

OK, I fully expect Hairston to be our every day 2B next year. He's our leadoff hitter that we need. He needs some polish but you can see the man gets on base.

[Omar]

The ball gets through the legs Delgado. Error'd. Al Leiter taken out. This is the toughest part of relieving: coming in with the bases loaded and 0 outs.

[badger1679666666]

lol.

 

I don't think Lee is used to having people on base - he hasn't looked great with runners on lately.

 

He needs adjustment time.

[PackLandVA]

PREDICTION - DLee makes 'em pay this time!!!

[Roast]

Wow, what do ya know, you work the count, and good things happen. What a Bleepin concept!

[otis89]

The ball gets through the legs Delgado. Error'd. Al Leiter taken out. This is the toughest part of relieving: coming in with the bases loaded and 0 outs.

 

And facing Derrek Lee.

[UMFan83]

OK, Derrek has ANOTHER AB with runners on. Hopefully he gets a hit here before he gets the reputation of only hitting with the bases empty...

[Blueheart05]

I feel sorry for Leiter. I liked his playoff commentary. Hmmm, he should to think about retiring. lol Edited July 10, 2005 by Blueheart05

CUBS are 15-7 when they take 4 or more walks, 27-37 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

They've taken 4 walks 22 times???

 

That's 4 or more !! , and indeed, they have. In fact, on two occaisions, the've actually taken 7 walks in a game !!

[Roast]

lol.

 

I don't think Lee is used to having people on base - he hasn't looked great with runners on lately.

 

He needs adjustment time.

 

You want to know why his swing was so wierd last time.... he was light headed. He fainted when he saw men on base.

[USSoccer]

So tell me again why Dusty can't get over Hairston missing a few signs? I absolutely love the top of this lineup. It should not change.

[Blueheart05]

I think D's swing is off

 

Come on D Lee

Go CUBS !!

 

They've taken 4 walks 22 times???

 

I was about to say the same thing. I honestly would have guessed that they've took 4 or more walks like twice.

 

Believe it or not..... we've taken 4 walks in a game 3 times in the last week !!

[Roast]

Woah, that was a nice pitch.

[otis89]

Almost. Sac fly for Lee though.

[Roast]

Ooooooooooohh. Damn. so close.

[Omar]

Lee with a sac fly. Maddux scores.

[Blueheart05]

Sacfly, nice job. Wish it was a hit though

[chicubs]

Darn. Wouldve liked to see that one leave the yard!

[badger1679666666]

tough to hit it out of the park the other way in FLA. Good job getting the runner home and the runner to 3rd.

[Chris]

Hey all, a quick note that the Eric Patterson and Sean Gallagher Q & A threads are up in the Minor League forum!

[otis89]

Ha ha. Nice.
