  1. For a second there, I thought the Pirates had Jose Bautista pitching. Might not have been any worse.
  2. The Pirates have already survived their starter. It doesn't get any worse.
  3. Is it strange that there's a decent argument to put the entire Pittsburgh outfield in the all-star game this year?
  4. If I learned anything from the Cubs' game today, if you're going to come all the way back from a huge deficit, you still need to get a lead to win the game.
  5. As long as Doumit doesn't hit into a DP, Bay will get another chance. Well, also as long as Doumit doesn't end the game here...
  6. No, the Pirates and Reds pitched the 9th well.
  7. No good team would blow a 6 run lead in the 8th, right?...
  8. One more runner and the Pirates will get Bay up again.
  9. McLouth just homered to bring the Pirates within 10-9.
  10. Thanks largely to Gallagher, the Cubs now have the best record in baseball and the largest divisional lead in baseball.
  11. The game was moved from 2:55 to 12:05 sometime in the last week, so the 2:55 information (and likely the FOX information) is dated.
  12. Don't look now, but for all the Cubs have seemed to struggle lately, they'll end the day with the best record in the majors.
  13. It would make me very happy to see the Gallagher/Murton trade propel the A's to the playoffs. It would make me very sad to see the Gallagher/Murton trade propel the A's to the world championship.
  14. Hopefully we can score enough with Harden so we don't have to finish with Wood tomorrow.
  15. Haha .. even Bob said Rammy admired it. I really don't have an issue with a batter watching that one, though. It was long gone, the only issue was fair or foul. If foul, why waste the energy running full-speed to first?
  16. You could say the same thing about several games the Cubs for all intents and purposes should've lost, but won anyway, like the 10-9 comeback win against Colorado, the stretch where they came back to win 6 games in a row at home, a couple extra-inning games in Pitt early on... It generally evens out.
  17. And for those of you getting on Wood, here's how the 9th inning went: Glorified 2-base error by DeRosa, 6-pitch walk (this is where someone could get on him), single on an eye-level fastball, 3-pitch strikeout looking, short fly to right, grounder to first.
  18. Anyone have the Pat/Ron call of the Ramirez HR?
  19. Wood didn't pitch yesterday The selective memory of a Cub fan, ladies and gentlemen. It's the same reason the 2003 playoffs ended midway through the NLCS, and the 1998 season was won on a one game playoff with the Giants.
  20. You know, the Cubs haven't had a 5 run inning in a while...
  21. I hate bunting with the #2 hitter, especially when he's been the hottest hitter on the team, and the opposing pitcher is a lot poorer against lefties.
  22. This is true. I would really enjoy seeing the other 2/3 of the game go exactly the same way.
  23. Marquis at 43 pitches through 3. Cain at 43 pitches through 2.
  24. Have the Cubs utilized a LF yet this year that doesn't have that effect?
