8/17 Cubs (Z!) @ Astros (Oswalt) 6:05 p.m., CSN/ESPN

[brinoch]

good inning for Z.

 

Very nice, indeed.

 

And, guys, please, remember appropriate game thread etiquette. We're getting close to crossing the line.

 

for "damn" and "dammit"...wow, how countryclubish.

 

No, not for "damn" or "damnit". And don't forget your khaki's and blazer.

Anyone know the exact number of double plays Ram has hit into and where he is with regards to the league leaders?

[brinoch]

ESPN: "He'll have to hurry to turn two"

 

Apparently, they haven't seen that Aramis doesn't have to run out ground balls hard because of his injuries.

 

Or that he's the slowest player on the team when healthy.

[otis89]

9 K's for Z. Nice.

He's not even in the top 40. Neifi is first on the team and 21st in the league with 13. Actually, since I'm sure these stats are updated daily, Aramis just grounded into his 13th and tied Neifi.

Aram is now tied with Neifi for the team lead with 13 (Aram has 3 in this series alone). They are tied for 10th in the league (Sean Casey leads with 24).

If I'm reading right - and there's every chance I'm not - that would be his 13th, making him joint 21st (with Neifi)

 

Edit - having seen above post - I was reading it wrong.

Wow, I guess it's just the insane amount of double plays he's hit into this series. Im not surprised, however, that Neifi is now I guess tied for the lead.

Clicked the wrong one :oops:. I meant :). I'm still happy for him, rather than shocked.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 46-22 when they score 4 runs or more, 11-40 when they don't
