Hopefully the Cubs don't suck on this upcoming 6 game road trip.
-
I'm done with this game.
-
And there's two more runs.
-
Well, two out of three from the Sox isn't bad.
-
Z's ERA up to 5.61.
-
Rich Hill lost?
-
Even Hawk and DJ acknowledging Erstad's lack of power and wondering why Soriano was playing so deep.
-
Crap. And the Cubs give the run right back.
-
Next time a scrub pitches for the first time, I'm laying money against the Cubs. It's like freaking clockwork. Unfortunately I took Cubs -1.5 in a 4-team parlay today. The other three parts of my parlay? Won, won, winning by 6...if the Cubs can win by two, I turned $5 into $100. That means they'll win by one.
-
At least we got one run back which was better than expected because at one point there were no on and two out.
-
Ozzie going to bring in another new pitcher.
-
Ask and you shall receive. 3-2.
-
Come on DLee.
-
That pitch was a strike.
-
Triple for Soriano.
-
6-4-3
-
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.

Come on Z, get out of this.

Ward comes through.
