2 days ago I could have taken 3 hits of acid and not be able to imagine in my mind a hit with RISP by the Cubs. Today we just completed our second 4+ run comeback with a 2 out single with RISP. Wow
I guess they'll have to rally in the 9th then For a split second I thought that ball was driven on a better line than that and was going to drop. I feel like whenever teams get this far they don't just go quietly. 3-4-5 up in the 9th and if any team knows how Wood will approach this situation its these guys. Here comes the awkwardness or cheering against Wood.
This would just make it more painful for Wood to get a 1 run save vs. us. But maybe it won't be. Some things are very predictable in baseball. A struggling lefty down 2-0 in the count, pretty much has to throw a FB in the strike zone to an emerging Soriano. Good things are pretty likely to happen in that situation.
I just want to say that I still don't like Edmonds but I learned to get over it and even like him. It's hard watching this happily know that just 2 weeks over it would end in horrible disappointment.
