One heck of a 9th inning.
-
So... where was that pitch?
-
YES!!!

Which is what fontenot eventually realized
-
at least the end of the inning was amusing

No, he isn't. It just looks like it when every bad decision is blown up and highlighted. Lou is the best Cubs manage in a long, long, long time and it's annoying to hear people freak out over every little thing he does. I know it's the basis for every message board, but it's hypersensitive overreaction. And you're right, I probably shouldn't read any of these threads, since I already know what is inside. It looks like he's a bad manager when he makes a ridiculously long string of consecutive bad decisions and we highlight them by pointing them out? How else do you judge managing? His managing yesterday was worse than someone picking players to use at random. In the case of Miles, he picked the worst non-pitcher on the team to use. He screwed up the use of every single reliever, and he went through quite a few of them.

I just can't believe Lou screwed up (almost?) every single move after putting Heilman in the game.
-
Either way would have taken a heroic/lucky effort to throw the man out. I might have gone the other way with it, but I think it's certainly not cut-and-dry enough to say that he screwed up in throwing home.

Good job, Lou
-
Marmol had 6 ABs in 2007 and 1 in 2008. So he's fresh.

45 pitches for Looper

Too bad it was theriot's muscles behind that, but nice hit

Backup catchers are all terrible

Anyone remember that game at Wrigely where he got hit and acted like he was dead? He was the guy who was terrified of lightning, wasn't he?
-
Made Berkman look pretty bad there

nicely done. Knocked out a square in the board, too
-
