7/22 Cubs (Zambrano) at Cardinals (Carpenter), 7:10 pm, WGN

[Omar]

Another ball caught on the warning track. Painful inning :x

[Mizzou]

Well, we're definitely hitting Crapenter hard, that's for certain. Gotta hit them a little harder though!

[USSoccer]

2 hard hit balls that inning...maybe a good sign

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

neifi, what's with the attempted longball?

[Blueheart05]

Carpenter is definitely looking hittable...

[XZero771679666304]

Hitting them hard, but not quite hard enough. I have a feeling we're gonna rough Carpenter up a bit before it's over.

[Jon]

Ugh.

 

As a CF, I have to say Jim Edmonds should have caught that one.

Both guys were there to make the catch. It didn't look like Jimmy was very happy that he was called off.

[Mizzou]

Ugh.

:-k

[reggiemiller rules]

Carpenter dosent look like hes totally on tonight, usually you dont see as many hard hit balls this early on.

[Roast]

mmm.. Just got back, I now have a tasty banana split in front of me. Anyways, how did the cubs score?

[Omar]

And that's why I hated the small ball last inning. Carpenter is getting hit hard tonight. You can't just give up outs.

 

That reminds me.. I wonder how Rick Ankiel is doing in the minors as he is deciding to become an outfielder which cracks me up :lol:

[CaliforniaRaisin]

And that's why I hated the small ball last inning. Carpenter is getting hit hard tonight. You can't just give up outs.

 

Even if Carpenter isn't getting hit hard, small ball would have been a waste.

[Brian]

Do you think Rodriguez was just glad Edmond didn't tackle him like he did to Sanders?

[Outshined_One]

Apparently he's not doing too horribly. Knowing the Cardinals, he'll win a batting title some day.

[Brian]

I bet a Cardinal goes deep this inning...

[Coach C]

That breaking ball was filthy on the 1-1 count.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Ugh.

 

As a CF, I have to say Jim Edmonds should have caught that one.

 

:-k

 

Former?

 

Eyeliner Boy took a bad route (and got called off).

[Mizzou]

And that's why I hated the small ball last inning. Carpenter is getting hit hard tonight. You can't just give up outs.

 

Even if Carpenter isn't getting hit hard, small ball would have been a waste.

 

I understand the philosophy, but... we scored a run. How is that a waste??

[Omar]

Pujols strikes out again!

[Coach C]

WHIFF! Sit down Pujols.

[USSoccer]

Sit Down, Al!

[Brian]

CARLOS OWNS PUJOLS!!!!!

[Blueheart05]

WOW, Pooh struck out twice :shock:

[Outshined_One]

Take a seat Puboy!

You wasted Walker's AB.
