Oh come on, there's been other 56 year olds pitch shutouts before, hasn't there ???

The CUBS are 3-3 this month. (winning on F,S & S.... and losing on T W, Th) :scratch:

forecast looks pretty decent until late night. I'm sitting here 75 miles north of Cincinnati, and it's a beautiful sunny day..... but all hell could break loose in the next six hours, eh?

Putting together that post took about 8 minutes. Putting together the databases that made it possible..... well, that took years !! :wink:

Damn !! Thought we were gonna pull that one out.

CUBS score 5.69 runs per game at Wrigley...... and 3.93 R/G everywhere else. Imagine how hideous that would look if you subtract the games at Miller Park. CUBS score 2.83 R/G in road games not behind the cheddar curtain. Go CUBS !!!

Last time the CUBS scored 10 runs in an inning.... Fri 14 Aug 09 (10 runs in the 4th inn) in a 17-2 win over Pittsburgh at Wrigley Go CUBS !!!

CUBS score 5.69 runs per game at Wrigley...... and 3.93 R/G everywhere else.

which franchise ? :wink:

The comeback begins !!! Yay !!! :yahoo: :yahoo:

Please, don't remind me that I'm over the hill !!! :wink: From Saturday evening until Monday morning I was marooned in the old truck stop on I-40 (Not the new Flying J across the highway). The restaurant there was closed up years ago, and the convenience store was pretty much sold out of everything by Sunday morning. The young man and his wife that own the truck wash on the property brought in tons of food and set up their BBQ grill and were feeding drivers for donations. On Monday morning, we discovered that there was exactly one route out of town that was not flooded out. That was to take TN 97 down to Franklin and get on I-65 which was open the whole time. Since I was headed to southern Mississippi, I could take I-65 through Birmingham as well as I could run I-40 through Memphis...... so, off I went toward Franklin. I don't ever remember a more frustrating day. 29 miles, point to point, took 6 hrs and 45 minutes !!!! By the time I got onto I-65, I was so tired, I had to stop and sleep !!! In any case, I survived the great Nashville flood of '10. btw.... greetings one and all from beautiful Opelousas, LA !!! Love me some gumbo !!
