8/11 StL Cardinals (Mulder) @ Cubs (Maddux) 1:20 CSN

[Derwood]

Why am I getting that same feeling I had last year when we went up on them by like 8 in hte first inning and then went on to loose the game?

 

if loosing is anything like losing, that must have sucked!

Imagine if Dusty benched Walker for more than this game. Todd would just explode on him. It would probably be the greatest moment of my life.

[indifferent]

I'm not watching the game, but what is their body language like? Is it any different than it has been for the last week and a half?

 

I'd hate for a team with this record to be able to think they can turn it on and off depending on the quality of the oppostion.

 

Nice K by Maddux.

 

I posted the same thing on the Cards board, UK. I would be angry if I was a Cubs fan and they can get up against the Cards and tank it against the Reds, Mets, D-backs, etc.

All right. Maddux goes nicely up the ladder on Pujols for an inning-ending K. Where's the :whew: emoticon? Edited August 11, 2005 by KatJ

I have been a Greg Maddux fan for a long time. And there is no doubt that he is given a different strike zone than most pitchers. Was strike two really a strike? Santo even stated that could have gone either way. Which means it was a ball. Just wanted to get your opinion.

[chicubs]

All right. Maddux got Pujols to K to end the inning. Where's the :whew: emoticon?

 

Maddog should have gone crazy like Z did when he struck out Barry. If we are going to miss out the playoffs, make is entertaining.

[splunk]

anyone know how many times pujols has k'd this year?

 

that makes #44 in 427 AB's

[CubsHawks25]

Just about everything is going the Cubs way today...

 

Where the * was all this luck at 4 games ago!?!?

Looking at Gameday, all were strikes. But I think strike two was a little more inside than the others.

He's the best hitter in the game for a reason.

[E.J.]

Murton is hitting like a little leaguer today. Not making much solid contact.

[Brian]

Yay!, Corey with 2 hits!!

[Jon]

3 balls that Patterson has made very solid contact with. Nice.

[CubsHawks25]

Maybe that little stint in Iowa did do CPatt some good?? :shock:

 

2-3 today. GJ Corey!

[Chocolate Milk]

The Cubs make no sense.

 

Corey playing well today.

[Brian]

I think they should let Maddux pull back and swing away.

I am watching the same way but they usually due put called strikes in the zone on the internet.

he cant settle for two hits though, now hes got to concentrate on getting hit 3 in his next at bat

[chicubs]

Its not on TV for me, so could one of you guys fill me in on how Corey's swing/approach looks?

[CubsHawks25]

Macias, if there was EVER a time I wanted to see you go 3 for whatever on any certain day... today is that day!

[Brian]

what the heck why is macias being patient NOW.

[Jon]

Haha. Nice play, Pujols.
