wow, a gary kolb mention! the picture is of dan, but he is related to gary. very nice pictures, btw. thanks for posting them! Don't know where I got Gary from ?? :oops: Thanx for the kind words everybody. Derwood, that picture is great !! (Bet you didn't know I am a CPA, eh? ) As of this writing, I am planning to be in Atlanta for the CUBS series. Do I smell an NSBB get together here ??

OBP, schmo-BP These guys are FAST! Have you see 43 run out his signature grounder to 2nd? Interestingly enough...... in the last 15 games, Pierre has gotten on base 25 times, but has only 1 stolen base. 06/16 - 07/01 AB R H 2B 3B HR TB RBI BB SO BA OBP SLG OPS Pierre 61 6 19 2 2 1 28 5 3 4 0.311 0.373 0.459 0.832

I took some photos at the 3 games I've been to so far this year.... thought I would share them with the class...... Thur 18 May 2006 This was the NSBB get together game with Kerry Wood making his first start of the season. Washington beat the CUBS 5-3 http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS047.jpg Here's Kerry Wood roaming the outfield during batting practice http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS048.jpg Kerry Wood warming up in the bullpen http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS049.jpg More warming up http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS050.jpg Somebody receiving an award before the start of the game http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS051.jpg Kerry winding up to throw his first pitch of the season. Things more or less went downhill from this point. I wanted to get a group shot of NSBB members when the game ended, but as soon as the last pitch was thrown, people started to scatter in all directions. At any rate, among those in attendance were sethuel1, nilodnayr, brian, sbrin84, Mark_R, as well as myself and several family members. If I've forgotten anybody, please don't take offense, it was not intentional. Tues 27 June 2006 CUBS lose to Milwaukee 8-5, after rallying in the 8th to take a 5-4 lead, Dempster implodes in the 9th, the Brewers score 4 times, and that was that !! http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS052.jpg In the background, from left to right, you have sethuel1, vance_the_cub_fan, Mark_R, and UMFan83.

Wed 28 June 2006 CUBS beat Milwaukee 6-3 on the strength of a 5 run rally in the 8th inning. Marmol pitched very well, leaving with the game tied 1-1 in the 7th. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS057.jpg This is how close our seats were to the Brewers' dugout. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS058.jpg Marmol gets the sign...... http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS059.jpg Here's the windup...... http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS060.jpg And the pitch....... http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS061.jpg Now really.... would you buy a used car from these guys ??? That's Vance and Fred in case you didn't know it. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS065.jpg Len Kasper singing "Take me out to the ball game" http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS066.jpg More of Len Kasper singing http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS067.jpg Random shot of Ron Santo standing up in the booth http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS068.jpg I thought I had gotten a shot of Derrek Lee belting the game tying home run in the 8th inning..... but that sure doesn't look like Derrek, and it sure doesn't look like a home run swing. If anybody has a clue who and what that might be, let me know !! http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS069.jpg Here's Jacque Jones, after oversliding home plate, diving back to it to score in that 8th inning rally. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS070.jpg Ryan Dempster on to pitch the 9th inning http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS071.jpg He gets one...... http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS072.jpg He gets two..... http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS073.jpg Hey, what do you know, he get's the 3rd out !!! CUBS WIN !! http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS074.jpg Congratulations all around. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS075.jpg More congrats !! http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS076.jpg They hoist the W banner up http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b137/Hornkohl/CUBS079.jpg Gary Kolb, charged with a blown save and the loss, sits alone in the dugout after all his team mates have left, and we all go home happy !!

CUBS have hit 12,001 HRs in their last 19,206 games. Go CUBS !!
