7/15 Cubs(Wood) vs. Pirates(Fogg) 1:20 CSN. Puhleeze

[Brian]

While it's hard to get excited about Wood dominating the Pirates, it's great to see 0 walks.

[Blueheart05]

Kerry is cruising. I dont need "Kid K" I want this Kerry that goes deep into games.

[Coach C]

While it's hard to get excited about Wood dominating the Pirates, it's great to see 0 walks.

 

Also another reason to get excited is the Cubs have completely owned the Pirates.

 

16 out of 18 games. 7 out of 8 in Wrigley.

 

Another beautiful 1-2-3 inning for Wood.

The Pirates and the Fish. Kerry has definitely improved. The old Kerry would have been out of the game in 5 1/3. Fewer strikeouts means lower pitch counts and with some luck, he may pitch into the 8th inning.

Only 75 pitches for Wood through 6. That last inning was a nine pitch inning. I like the Wood that is out there today.

[Brian]

It goes without saying, It's great that the 2004 ARAM is back and looks to be here to stay!! Edited July 15, 2005 by Brian

[moorecg]

in the bullpen early again...I like it...maybe we should have done this all year...

 

It does help to have two studs back, and one whiffer in the minors, and OBP guys at the top.

 

I'm almost to the point where I refuse to believe that this team is the same team that went through that streak a few weeks ago. Its amazing what putting people in the right spots and letting them play will do.

[USSoccer]

Mark Cuban is hilarious.

 

"I love Chicago...All the drunks out on the street and in the bars...nothing better"

 

HA!

 

Pat and Ron are cracking up.

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

I'd like to see Kerry do what Prior did yesterday... 8 solid innings. Then get a young guy in there to seal the deal, and chalk another one up in the standings. We'll see how the next inning goes though.

[Blueheart05]

Holla with a bloop. I'll take it. :D

[Coach C]

Bloop to LF. Runners on 2nd and 1st, with no outs.

 

Do not GIDP Neifi.

[badger1679666666]

I assume Mark is singing the 7th?

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

I assume Mark is singing the 7th?

 

Yep, and he's buying the team in the 8th. :wink:

[goonys evil twin]

Finally Todd bloops one to stop the streek at a dozen.

 

Stone is overly perplexed about why Hollandsworth can't be a regular starter.

 

 

 

 

I change my mind about Cuban as Cubs owner, he's fun.

[JC]

Don't mean to be mean, but:

[Blueheart05]

Do not GIDP Neifi.

 

Shhhh, I think he and Derrek lead the team in DPs

 

 

DOUBLE

[Brian]

Ronny will never play again....

[Coach C]

7-1 now. Neifi hits a line drive to the RF bullpen.

 

Runners on 3rd and 2nd. 0 outs.

[goonys evil twin]

Neifi must think it's April. He feels the collective breath of Nomar and Ronny.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

As bad as we suck, the Pirates must really suck to let us kick their arses this way.

[Brian]

come one WOODY hit a GRANNY!!

[Blueheart05]

If we have the good Neifi right now all I can say is: Ronny's young, he'll get his turn eventually. We're trying to win not keep the kids happy. Edited July 15, 2005 by Blueheart05

[Coach C]

Come on Wood.

 

Make him pay for walking Barrett.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

come one WOODY hit a GRANNY!!

 

That would be funny.
