8/28 RYNE SANDBERG DAY!! 1:20 pm CT, WGN

[Mizzou]

There you go Derrek! *sigh* if only it mattered.

 

I was thinking... how awesome would it be if Ryno went and sat in the bleachers for today's game?

[Omar]

It's ridiculous that the Cubs are wearing those bush league alternate jerseys. The choice should be management's on days like today.

 

Agreed.

 

And Sammy's number better be retired. He was one of, if not the greatest hitter the Cubs have ever had.

 

No doubt his will be retired.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 37-17 when they score first,.... 24-51 when they don't

CUBS are 18-6 when they score in the first inning,... 43-62 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Chris]

NOW Dusty wants to give Lee a day off?! He just might be the dumbest guy ever.

Hey Fred:

 

What is the Cubs record when DLee hits at least one homerun, and in the first inning the Cubs pitcher pitches a 1-2-3 inning?

Can't really tell about 1-2-3 innings, because that information isn't available in the daily box score...... but

 

CUBS are 19-12 when Derrek Lee hits at least 1 HR.... 41-56 when he doesn't

 

Go CUBS !!

Man I just love watching Z play.

 

When he stuck out, he walked back to the dugout swearing and yelling and shaking his head.

 

When he just ended the inning, he was shaking his head because he allowed a hit.

 

This guy is a GAMER.

 

Now, he just has to stop reaching out with that hand before it ends his career.

[Balsa]

Hey Fred, what is the Cubs record with Cedeno playing SS?

Ya know.... that's something I haven't been tracking, since we really didn't have any controversy about shortstop when the season began. I think I might just add it to the list, tho.
