Ugh.

Quick inning.

I don't know how you can be mad at Z for that. He threw two or three pitches that anyone else in baseball would have swung and missed at. That's b/c he was going for the K and not the out like he always does. Ever since Z became more of a "strikeout" pitcher, his effectiveness has decreased accordingly. He doesn't as deep into games as he used to, his groundball to fyball ratio has plummeted, and he has already given up more homers this year than he did the entire '04 (??) season. He used to be able to negate the walks by giving up few homers and enducing many a double play. Now it just doesn't happen. I wish we had that old Z back. Not quite, but close. He's given up 11 HR's this year and gave up 14 in 2004. So he'll likely have given up more sometime in June. Maybe it was '03 then. I'm pretty sure one of those years he only gave up 9 or 10 homers during the regular season. Yeah, it was 03. And there's No. 12 given up on the year.

Two quick outs.

Ward comes through.

Walks are nice. Let's capitalize.

Pierzynski DP!!

I'll take full responsibility if the Cubs lose today. I was unable to watch the first two games of the series because of work (Friday) and the broadcast being on FOX yesterday. Although I was unable to watch the Mets games on Thursday so maybe it's not me. Either way, I'm watching this one and hoping for a good Z start.

I love DLee.

And Ottawa is in the Stanley Cup finals.

Chelsea's central defenders are pretty poor. This was a very blah game. Man U were gassed, and both teams had been shellacked so hard by injuries that it's not hard to believe it took extra time to decide it. So it wasn't a very entertaining game?

Ozzie is such a D-Bag. Link doesnt work anymore. LOL, oh really? That damn Kenny Williams was on B&B this morning asking that it not be played repeatedly and, considering The Score is now the "home of the Sox" they must have obliged... Wow. That's a great exchange. North really went off on him.

CUBS WIN!!! CUBS WIN!!!

Just got back. GO CUBS.

well i wouldnt go that far as to movin them outta chicago....but after today i most def am close to the edge, so don't push cuz i'm bout to lose my head. F.U. CUBS Goddamit, I almost had a murderous rage today. I was throwing stuff against the wall. I almost put my foot through the TV. How can the Cubs lose like that. 5 runs in the 9th? Come the freak on! I'm depressed. But throwing things, putting your foot through the tv (almost)? Are you serious? Soriano12 thinks that reaction is a little excessive. -

Gee I don't know, maybe his .390 average, 17 doubles and 1.016 OPS, and his gold glove defense, but that's about it. I was assuming he was joking. At least I hope he was. It probably wasn't a joke. -
He gave up two hits on three pitches. He didn't do his job.
