I think so. That was the one where the final play was grounder with the bases loaded, the Rockies threw it all over the place, and Guttierez finally sprinted for home and just beat the throw to score the winning run.

 

I wanna say Girardi hit the grounder.

[Coach C]

Hollansworth takes a walk.

 

And Neifi pops out to end the inning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

No surprises there.

Keys to winning this game:

 

3) And this is THE most important..... score more runs than the other guys. I cannot emphasize enough how important this is.

 

Cubs are 45-0 when scoring more runs than their opponent.

 

Cubs are 0-45 when scoring fewer runs than their opponent.

[erik316wttn]

That would have been the play of the year had he gotten the out at first.

 

Glad Z is ok, though.

[Mark Priors Calves]

Zambrano makes me cringe.

[Flames24Rulz]
