  1. WTF he started home that's a BALK!
  2. Good point. There was a pitch just called a ball that the ump has called a strike tonight. Why can't the top baseball league on the planet get some competent freaking umps?
  3. I'm no expert, but I would think the answer to guys like this is to be patient at the plate and try to take the ball the other way, because it sure seems like swinging from your heels and twisting yourself into the ground isn't working. Me too. I would think if a pitcher without real good stuff wants to nibble outside all day, I would want my hitters dumping the ball the other way all day until he's forced to come inside. I see other teams do this alot. That and just not swinging at pitches way outside and balls that bounce before they hit the plate always helps.
  4. I also want to know why this Cub offense continually pursues a terrible strategy against loopy slowballers game after game. Why is nothing done about this?
  5. Derek oles a ball I've seen him catch 1,000 times.
  6. 2 run lead feels like 5. :x :x
  7. I'm starting to fear that Lilly will need to be perfect to get the win, or else he will just give up some runs trying to be perfect.
  8. I hope to God Soriano will come back and give Lee or ARam a break, rather than insisting on leading off.
  9. Of late, Rammy is swinging just as horribly. My god was that bad.
  10. At least he ran this one out.
  11. There's a leadoff single.
  12. Threaten him with Moesha re-runs and Sister Sister every time he loses. Oh, you'll see some improvement, methinks. :wink:
  13. Yes. That was a nasty curve by Lilly.
  14. Don't worry, they'll slot it after Moesha to rake in the big ratings.
  15. We routinely waste bases loaded no outs. Whats the surprise with this one? I don't think anyone expressed suprise, just displeasure.
  16. As far as I can tell, yes. Which is just wonderful for a lefty who is scared to challenge hitters.
  17. Pwahahaha they tried the squeeze. Too bad it didn't work.
  18. Well, moved the runner over at least.
  19. They come up with some remarkably bad programming. One must work at being that bad.
  20. Hey look, more bad sitcom programming from WGN to contrast with Cubs games.
  21. I promised I wouldn't whine about it. But it is frustrating. I just wish we could do that more.
  22. Lordy. That was a horrible pitch to swing at.
  23. It would be nice for Lilly to start stepping it back up, but here in the desert.....I have my doubts.
  24. Away, away, away, that's the strategy with Lee. Need to stop swinging at pitches off the outside corner, Derek.
