    I think you are missing the fact that the camera angle at PNC Park is different than most ballparks. Its more off to the right side. So a lot of pitches to that side of the plate look like strikes when they are balls.
  2. UMFan83
    I don't know why you guys call him One Pitch Rich. Obviously he throws a ton of them.

    Wonder if this means Theriot's dropped from the 2 hole for good.

    Wait, what? You guys have both been to another road game on April 9th that also went 15 innings? Weird. Yeah... we were in Atlanta 4 years ago when the CUBS beat the Braves 2-1 in 15. Ain't that a hoot !! Ah, the HOLLA-bomb game, right? The first 100-page NSBB game thread, if I am not mistaken. Yup. Cubs were down 1-0 until 2 outs in the 9th I believe. It might not have been 2 outs. But either way Holla slammed a HR down the RF line and the teams played forever and a day until the 15th inning when I believe the go ahead run scored on a foul ball sac fly. Also, that game thread was listed as one of Yanr's greatest life accomplishments upon his less than graceful "retirement" from this board. Good old Yanr.

    Having Corey Patterson and Paul Bako on the roster with Jay Bruce in AAA is already an example of how Dusty's influence will hurt them. I don't care what a 10 game sampling says.

    Paul Sullivan confirms its Hill tonight: http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2008/04/hill-ready-to-f.html Also, this is the likely starters for today: C: Blanco 1B: Lee 2B: Fontenot SS: Theriot 3B: Ramirez LF: Soriano CF: Pie RF: Fukudome I'm guessing the lineup will look like this: Soriano, LF Theriot, SS Lee, 1B Ramirez, 3B Fukudome, RF Blanco, C Fontenot, 2B Pie, CF Hill, P

    I think it was pretty obvious that the ball disappeared behind the foul pole.
  8. UMFan83
    Yeah, it clearly looked like a HR. Either way Felix got the GW hit.
  9. UMFan83
    I know its stupid to scoreboard watch in April, but c'mon. The Brewers and Cardinals are winning again! If this keeps up the Brewers will be 7-1, the Cardinals 7-2. Aghh
  10. UMFan83
    Jason Kendall is 2-2 tonight. His average for the year is up to .571.
  11. UMFan83
    Crap. Another extra innings game?
  12. UMFan83
    I shouldn't be this nervous about a game in April should I?
  13. UMFan83
    The Pirate mascot probably turned his head on that one
  14. UMFan83
    Are you sure that was foul? It looked like it went behind the pole.
  15. UMFan83
    That looked fair....ahhh
  16. UMFan83
    Oof that was a scary throw.
  17. UMFan83
    Ohhhh so this is what happens with overuse. Guess I answered my own question.
  18. UMFan83
    I say screw Augie after last years NLDS
  19. UMFan83
    Yup, the only way I'd consider a trade is if you are driving around the streets of Dallas and see Hamilton leaning into a car in a shady part of town.
  20. UMFan83
    Predictions: Mets Reds Cardinals ----------- Cubs
  21. UMFan83
    you realize the Cubs will lose 4 of 6 to the Giants this season, right? Yeah because we'll actually face Lincecum and Cain in our games. Plus Zito is a lefty so he'll automatically own us like he did last year.
  22. UMFan83
    I thought all 162 games will be offered in HD this year??
  23. UMFan83
    Brewers win. 6-1 is a pretty impressive start. But they did start 20-5 last year too. BTW, Jason Kendall 3-4 tonight. He is the best hitter ever.
  24. UMFan83
    OK seriously. Kendall is hitting .529 on the year now. What the hell?
  25. UMFan83
    He signed on August 14th, and your right even if they could, I highly doubt they'd trade him unless it was for a superstar of Cabrera's caliber.
