Don't walk him.

 

Thank you.

Dunn strikes out swinging

[Mizzou]

LOL at Dunn's swing on strike three.

[Coach C]

Seeeeeeerike 3!

[badger1679666666]

Wow, Dunn looked horrible.

[E.J.]

That was a wicked swing by Dunn there. :D

[Omar]

Dunn Ks.

[Soul]

Reds fans can only boo the "Let's go Cubbies!" chant. Awesome.

 

That's nothing. Braves fans can't cheer or boo anything until the scoreboard or the PA system tell 'em to !!

 

did the Braves actually start the tomahawk chop, or did they steal that too?

 

No tomahawk chops until the drums started beating. Pavlov would have been proud !!

 

Braves stole it from the Seminoles. 'Noles have been doing it forever.

Nice 1-2-3 inning there, Novoa.

[Omar]

Good job Novoa! Inning over.

[Coach C]

Way to go Novoa!

[E.J.]

Nice inning by Novoa. Let's get some runs!!!

Let's get 1 more run so Dempster can still get the save.

[Jon]

Yeah, I have digital cable. Pat and Ron announce, and 2 seconds later I see what they're talking about.

 

On that last pitch I heard "swing and a foul back" and Novoa hadn't even started his windup yet.

Strange. There's a 2 second delay with CSNC, but I've never had it with WGN (although I'm not watching the superstation). Perhaps they want an extra delay to filter out any profanity that might come from Bob's mouth before it's heard all around the country.

 

Nice inning by Novoa!

 

Ugh. David Weathers...

[Omar]

Lee flys out to left. 1 down.

[Coach C]

Cy Weathers.

[Blueheart05]

Derrek hit that on the nose but out :oops:

Burnitz walks.

[otis89]

Burnitz walks for the 1 billionth time this season.

[Coach C]

Way to take the walk Burnitz.

 

Come on Aram.

[Blueheart05]

Burnitz walks

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Novoa since being recalled: 9 IP, 3 R(all ER), 7 H, 6 BB, 13 K's. That includes a 0 IP, 3 H, 3 R performance against Atlanta. Remove that outing and he has a 0.00 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and 13.00 K/9.

[Coach C]

BOOOOOOM!

 

A-Bomb!!
