9/11 Cubs 3 @ Giants 2 (Wuertz-W, Dempster-SV, Hawkins-L)

[LetsPlayTwo]

Hey! Corey didn't swing at that head-high fastball! I feel robbed.

 

:lol::lol::lol:

 

(This is my first game thread appearance in a long long time, but that comment was good enough to warrant it)

 

I try.

[E.J.]

And Macias almost kills Lee. Glad he's on the team.

[Chris]

1 down, 2 to go!

[CuseCubFan69]

Hey Macias did end up hitting for Murton!

 

No, Macias hit for Williamson who had taken over Murton's spot in the lineup.

 

I know Fred but it was Murtons slot. :D

Have I missed anything while watching the Cowboys instead of the Cubs?

 

On the neagtive side, I've had to endure the pontificating of Joe Buck.

[brfahey]

I'm just glad to see that Patterson's absolutley pathetic strikeout got as much play here as Macias' absolutley pathetic strikeout.

He knows his way around a ballfield dood!

Murton hit a homerun, but was victimized by another baffling double switch. Hawkins coughed up the go ahead run in the 8th, and Baker + Macias + CPatt blew a 2 on 1 out chance in the 9th.

[Chris]

2 down!

[CuseCubFan69]

If Baker wanted defense why the heck didn't he put Cedeno at 2nd?

 

Nice job Dempster!!!

Patterson's is worse. He has talent in there, Macias doesn't. Both suck right now.

Nice job Dempster!!!

 

I think Ronny's out for a few days at least with his hand.

cedeno currently has his hand in a splint.

[Mizzou]

A 1-2-3 9th? Could it be?

[Chris]

GAME OVER!!!!!!!!!!

[LetsPlayTwo]

Cubs Win!

[Mizzou]

Hey, Cubs win!

[USSoccer]

Alright! Nice road trip!

 

Now try not to suck at home.

[YearofDaCubs]

On the bright side at least we have a legit closer.

[Marco4]

A 1-2-3 9th? Could it be?

 

Oh, it could and is.

 

Cubs win.

 

Yay.

[E.J.]

It's amazing to me that the Cubs can actually win games with the managing that takes place late in games. Another great save by Dempster. What a stud.

Why? or how?

[J.R.]

It's hard to win when you have two managers working against you. Nice work fellas.
