9/23 Astros (Wandy) vs. Cubs (Glendon), 2:20pm, WGN

Walker singles.

 

Lee doubles.

 

Walker collapses at third base. Pat and Ron think it's his knee.

And Jose Macias is in the game as a pinch runner.

 

Wouldn't want to use Theriot or anything...

[LoneStarCubFan]

Which means Neifi and Macias are now hitting at the top of the order. Edited September 23, 2005 by LoneStarCubFan

[Bergy92]

Walker's hurt. They think it's his knee.

 

and here comes Macias...a little early today. I figured a pinch hit appearance in the 8th would have been assumed.

[series65cubsfan]

what just happened? I'm on gameday and it says Macias is replacing Walker? So we'll have Neifi and Macias as the 1 2 batters? Is Walker hurt?

[Bull]

echo, echo, echo, echo.

[series65cubsfan]

oops, y'all posted before I asked the question.

[Bergy92]

I will say this - I think that it is something to play for - to know Houston out of the playoffs. I would be overjoyed if we could sweep them...

 

Oh, and the Sox blow up and not make it in

Sounds like he had to be helped off the field.

 

We'll be seeing a lot of Macias over the next few days.

[Chris]

I thought Theriot would go in the game. Can't ask too much of The Riot, especially after entering the game in the 9th against the Brewers

Took the word right out of my mouth!

I don't think he does day games after day games - kind of a Barry Bonds type deal?

[Chris]

2-0 Cubs

[fromthestretch]

They are saying that Clemens will not be pitching in this series now. Apparantly, he has a leg problem. He's been scratched from the start tomorrow.

[Bull]

3-0

I heard he got some vitamins from Miggy Tejada :wink:

[Chris]

Wandy is getting it handed to him

[Chris]

Fear Murton!

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

let's go Corey.

[Guancous]

Murton with the intentional walk. I would love to give him an outfield spot for next year.

[series65cubsfan]

haha that's funny, walking the rookie to get to Patterson

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

yes!

 

Corey doesn't disappoint me again. :(

[Chris]

ugh

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

At least we got Rusch some early run support. With the wind blowing out, he's going to need it.
