8/13 StL Cardinals (Carpenter) @ Cubs (Williams) 12:20 FOX

[JoshiQ]

Buck & McCarver fawning over Andruw Jones.

 

How odd.

 

McCarver says to forget about him.

[Soul]

Did you see that stat on Carpenter?

 

49-50 before his injury.

 

Then 2 years off with an arm made of hamburger.

 

Now, 31-5.

 

How does that happen? He wasn't nearly this good before his injury. I mean, he was alright--but nothing like now. And after a massive, massive arm collapse?

 

Something isn't right with that.

[IMarkOutForDubois]

Don't worry, Southern Cub fans.

 

Fans in Detroit Tiger country are getting screwed out of the Cubs telecast as well.

[OldHappyCubFan]

How do you bypass the blackout on MLB.com?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Carpenter can't locate at all, and we don't take a single strike that inning. Horrible control yet a 14 pitch inning.

In other words, Cub baseball.

[da bears]

pat hughes just said the cubs are second worst in allowing walks, only in front of colorado, and the cubs are dead last in drawing walks. :roll:

[Outshined_One]

Buck just knocked McCarver down a peg!!

 

:shock:

[moorecg]

I sure hate to give Grudz a chance to burn us...

[Sarcastic]

Buck just knocked McCarver down a peg!!

 

:shock:

 

What happened? I muted it in the last half inning.

[Jon]

He just took too much time to get rid of that baseball.

[da bears]

that was just not a very good play by ramirez, he set up while he was at third instead of firing it over off balance.

[Outshined_One]

McCarver said something to the effect of, "Firing a manager often makes less sense than hiring a manager!"

 

There was a moment of awkward silence, then Buck said, "I'd respond to what it is you just said, but I can't because it made no sense."

[JoshiQ]

Bugger.

[SwisherSweet]

Hey thanks a lot for that run, aramis.

He didn't say it made no sense, he said he didn't understand the question.

[lowest]

burny singles to lead it off

[da bears]

man i really wish the cubs could give carpenter a loss...

[UMFan83]

This is the Cubs offense I remember. Still early though.

[SwisherSweet]

hey grudz!!

 

you suck!!

[da bears]

man that would have been quite the play. hopefully jerome can just have a decent at bat here.

[Omar]

man i really wish the cubs could give carpenter a loss...

 

They gave Clemens his first loss.. why not Carpenter?

[UMFan83]

Is there anything more tenseful then MLB Gamedays "In play, no out(s) recorded"

[Omar]

hey grudz!!

 

you suck!!

 

Better than Walker this year, (especially hitting for the cycle) and he is still better than Walker defensively.

It was better before when they didn't say "run scoring play."
