You know it's a blowout when Brenly's talking about Whoopie Cushions.

Is anyone up in the pen? Looks like MadDog is going out for the 8th.

Horrible day for Holla at the plate. Hopefully we'll see one of Dusty's patented double switches to bring in Murton to bat in the pitcher's spot in the 9th.

Mitre was getting ready.

Mitre

Was there a reason Nefi and Hollandsworth needed to bat there? Up 8 in the 8th inning you would think it might be a nice time to get Murton and Cedeno some at bats.

No. It'll be Macias taking over for ARam.

With Holly making tha last out of the 8th, Baker wants 1 more inning from Maddux. If TOdd got on, we'd see a pinch hitter, provided someone was up in the pen.

But that would only be logical!

[E.J.]

Looks like Maddog is still out there.

[BeerHere]

Lowell = .634ops

 

:shock:

 

Was he hurt?

[Blueheart05]

Go Greg!

 

This start is doing wonders for his inflated ERA. Lets hope he can keep them scoreless. Of course, Maddog has a clause in his contract about the number of innings pitched. He's not stupid. LOL< on a day when he's obviously feeling it (and the opposition has been demoralized) why not try and rack up the innings??? Smart guy.

[E.J.]

Lowell = .634ops

 

:shock:

 

Was he hurt?

 

No. He's just been that bad.

[otis89]

Let's get a double play please.

[Coach C]

Lenny Harris! :shock:

flies out.

[Blueheart05]

Agreed! Lowell has sucked big time for the greater part of the year. Edited July 10, 2005 by Blueheart05

CUBS are 12-1 when they score 8 or more runs..... 30-43 when they don't.

 

Go CUBS !!

That one loss was an 11-9 defeat by the Reds, right?

[Coach C]

Yeah. Heh heh.

[Coach C]

8IP, no runs.

 

Nice work Maddux.
