2-RBI double for Justin Huber, Montanez is the second run to score. The World now leads 3-0. Ian Snell is struggling big time (and now he has been pulled).

Did they make the players bring their own white pants? Luis' pinstripes with the orange and white uniform top really works well...

 

How about the orange top and the bright red and white socks??? :D

Eww, Chris Lambert (St. Louis) pitching. He said he wants to pitch like Mark Prior. He needs to keep his Cardinals cooties away from Mark. Edited July 10, 2005 by CaliforniaRaisin

I hope the world team makes him take a licking like the candycane that he is.

Also, since I'm not watching because I thought the damn game was on at 7, did Milledge start?

 

No, he didn't. Kevin Thompson (NYY) did.

Stupid ESPN making missed a bunch of this game. :evil: :evil: :evil:

Man, Andy LaRoche is still in the game. FREE MOORE!

Seriously. Why is he batting in the 5th inning of a 7 inning game?

[burnt out cubbie fan]

Why wasn't this player in this game?

Mr. Cub in attendance.

Montanez with a single to right. 1-2 with a HBP and a run scored. Not bad...

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Montanez singles to RF on the first pitch. He's 1 for 2 with a HBP and a run.

[Jon]

Luis with a solid single to right. He's 1-2 with a HBP and two runs scored.

 

He passed Chris Moore while rounding third. I sure hope he can get an AB...

And Montanez scores his second run of the game. 4-0, World.

[E.J.]

Looks like Moore is in at 3b now.

Yeah, you try making two posts at once while trying to beat whoever was going to post after my edit and studying for a midterm.

Andre Dawson (in a Cubs hat) sighting!

I beat the mods, I beat the mods!

 

Don't let it happen again. :P

I was disappointed to not see Carlos Quentin too.

Montanez up with the bases loaded and 2 outs.

 

Takes ball 1.

Takes ball 2 outside.

Flies out to CF.

 

Luis goes 1 for 3, with a HBP and 2 Rs.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Scott Moore on deck!

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Walk-balk-walk and here comes Moore with a pitching change first.

 

Loewen pitching to Moore.

 

Takes ball 1 outside.

Takes strike 1 outside corner.

Takes ball 2 HIGH.

Moore flies out to left-center (to Montanez), about 5 feet from the warning track.

 

Man, Moore looks big, and his bat looks small.
