Carlos Zambrano (10-5, 3.03)

Go Big Z!!!

 

But what's even more important is that tomorrow will be RYNE SANDBERG DAY when he gets his jersey number retired!! My Dad is going to the game and I'm going to tape it. I really hope they start showing it earlier or that its going to be on cable when they retire his number!! If anybody knows about what they're going to show on tv please post it!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I may actually watch this game...but only because they're retiring Sandberg's number.

NL Wild Card Standings (Start of Day, 8/28)

EVERYONE ELSE    -----
CHC              245.5

Best case scenario today:

Massive positive tests for steroids hit all 40 men of every roster
in the league except the Cubs. Cubs win by default and raise the
championship banner on the same day as Ryne Sandberg's number
is retired.


Would result in:

Hell freezing over

[bhogg]

bhogg coming to you from wrigley ville.

 

the men in b lue looked pathetic today -- save for maddux.

 

Things will undoubtedly be better tomorrow.

 

Its the summer of sandberg!!!!!!!!

[otis89]

*sigh* I would normally get excited for game's Z pitches, but unfortunately him pitching will only guarantee extra innings.

Well Deserved Ryno.

[otis89]

^Is this the real Ronnie Woo Woo?

[CP_414]

Ryne WOOOOOO Sandberg WOOOOOOO.

[otis89]

I'm assuming that is a yes. I just thought I'd ask since some people like to have fun with screennames.

Let's win this one for Ryne Sandberg.

 

Go CUBS !!

[CP_414]

I'm assuming that is a yes. I just thought I'd ask since some people like to have fun with screennames.

 

The real Ronnie couldn't spell "WOOOOOO". Sadly, I am not the real Woo-Woo...but I do have all of my teeth.

You know what's pitiful? EVERY TEAM above us lost Saturday except Florida. And Maddux pitched a complete game.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I will be in the bleachers for this game. Also i will probably be drunk.

 

You? Drink?

[sandberg23]

The pre-game is definately being taped...not so sure about the actual game though.

[Flames24Rulz]

I may actually watch this game...but only because they're retiring Sandberg's number.

 

yep same, i'll be watching pretty much just to see Ryno getting his number retired.

[Omar]

Does anybody know which pole his #23 is going on? Left field with Banks, Santo, and closer to United Center, or Right Field with Williams?

[sandberg23]

Does anybody know which pole his #23 is going on? Left field with Banks, Santo, and closer to United Center, or Right Field with Williams?

 

I have no idea, but I'd venture to say it would be on the right field pole to even them out and because he played on the right side of the field. Just a guess, though.
