Fred Hornkohl

I haven't seen any of the calls you're talking about 'cause I'm reduced to radio today..... but Timmons and Cooper (1st & 3rd base umpires) are both 12 year veterans. I would expect better of them.

Not ready for prime time.

I don't believe I would have pitched to Soto there, either.

Soriano with 2 BBs in the game..... for the second time in a week ??? :shock:

CUBS are 18-22 when the opponent commits at least 1 error.... 13-23 when they don't Go CUBS !!

Last one out.... turn off the lights, eh?

How they suffer !

[sigh]

Fukudome, rf Castro, ss Ramirez, dh Pena, 1b Johnson, cf DeWitt, 3b Soriano, lf Soto, c LeMahieu, 2b Wells pitching. Quade has used 64 different lineups in 77 games Quade has used the same lineup on consecutive days twice Quade's most often used lineup has been used 4 times Go CUBS !!

[uttering crude obscenities about your ancestors] CUBS are 0-2 on days when Hornkohl gets married..... 10,271-9,736 when he doesn't. We'll see how CubmanPi does, eh? Go CUBS !!

I don't [expletive] believe it !! My nephew sticks us in a hotel out here in Monterey that doesn't have WGN on their cable package. I knew I should have blown the wedding off and gone to Kansas City !!!! :banghead:

[sigh]

CUBS are 2-39 when they trail at the end of the 8th inning.... Go CUBS !!

Does that Pena guy have one more bomb left in his arsenal ???

:good:

CUBS are 10-4 when they steal a base.... 20-38 when they don't Go CUBS !!

CUBS are 1-9 when they get 10 hits .... :scratch: Go CUBS !!

It looks just like a vicious screaming line drive in the box score !!

Some DeWitt atonement, eh?

Point taken. I should know better.

If frogs had wings, they wouldn't bump their little butts on the ground, no?? :wink:
