i hate myself because I believed you for like 3 seconds. I actually had a tab open with his BR page and looked over.

Lou also ties Ralph Houk (1619 wins) 14th all-time.

On to 20,000!

Win #10,000 for the Cubs. #100 as a Cub for Lou.

Wrigley West's Left Field Line Bartman. (WWLFLB)

This is more awkward than the time Dusty Baker made those double switches. *Random Family Guy flashback*

Wait... If Marquis in pinch running for Ward, will he play 1B??

Guys, remember when Phillies went to extras without Burrell?

Its surprising since Wood looked so nasty on the first two batters.

Too good to be true.

Your wish is at Aramis's command.

RAMIREZ! I LOVE YOU!

No ramirez did that. Would they have IBB'd Fukudome with runners on 1st and 2nd?

I'm surprised the All-Star voting hasn't started. Usually it has this many games into the season.

I didn't see the ball at all after he made contact.

Speak softly and carry a big stick.

Soriano can go right back down. The team is doing just fine without him.

Isn't Dempster married? I'm sure he slept on the couch that night.
