  1. If you had to categorize the Cubs season in 15 minute increments, this latest 15 has gotta be amongst the top 10 worst.
  2. Unbelievable. Only the Cubs don't get the "in the vicinity call".
  3. And we're screwed out of another run, this time by the umps. Should be 3-2
  4. Should have sent Baker with the pitcher on deck. That might cost us. Then again he probably would have been nailed at the plate.
  5. Man, I feel like we've just missed like 4 HRs this series.
  6. I feel like the Cubs starters came into this series having no clue that their pitches were going to be affected pitching in this park. They are throwing their breaking pitches late in the count trying to get strikeouts and look stunned when they are ripped down the line for hits. Second game this series we are in a 3 run hole after 1
  7. This park should be demolished...what a crappy place for baseball.
  8. DeRosa leadoff single in the 8th for the Cardinals, who are down 1.
  9. Wow...so who is our long man today?
  10. How about an out? If we can get out of this inning down 3, I'll be happy.
  11. Pirates had a runner on second with 0 outs, and of course now its a runner on 1st with 2 outs.
  12. So far just about everything that's happened in this game has pissed me off.
  13. What the hell was that Wells? Not very athletic are you
  14. I either hate this zone, or I hate this camera angle, because 3/4 pitches in that leadoff walk looked borderline.
  15. I like how we all get pissed when someone swings at the first pitch and makes an out, but if they get a hit we congratulate them for jumping all over the first pitch. Never seen anyone applaud first pitch swinging. Really? I have. Swinging at the first pitch by itself is not a bad thing, but if its a trend that's not working, it can be really bad. There are different scenarios depending on scouting reports, placement in the order, how the pitcher fared against the previous hitter, etc.
  16. Jake Fox had been hitting .179/.242/.500/.742 in his last 15 games before that double.
  17. Ground rule doubles suck. I wish there was a way to change the rule to make it fair. Like umpires discretion or something but that would never happen.
  18. SOB!!!!
  19. Cardinals just scored. 3-2 in the 7th
  20. Let's call that a virtual tie, as we will have the lead by percentage points, eh? Fair enough. I'll call it sole possession if we lead by percentage points ;)
  21. Would this argument die if I edit my post to add the words "could have" in front of "completely burned the bullpen..."?
  22. 3-0 Pirates now...2 on 1 out for the Pirates too
  23. Something must be done about that.... Some guy on vivaelbirdos did that...theres a thread about it there. Douchebags. A Cubs fan has the 2004 Cardinals page though
