The best part
From the front of Jsonline
Dave Bush gave up just four hits and seven innings and the Brewers sscored four runs in the first three innings thanks to the help of four Atlanta errors as the Brewers held off the Atlanta Braves
Coffee is for closers
Yeah
A really good pitcher wouldn’t give up 7 innings. That puts him at a flat 7.00 Earned Inning Average, which is flat out unacceptable.

That sentence makes me wonder...
Which two teams were playing again?

esurance
Wow, they went from really annoying Saturday morning kids show ripoff commercials to bizarre indie music commercials.
He's extremely quick and good.
more road records
Holy crap, only five teams in the majors have a positive road record right now?! (And two barely so, Yankees at 19-18 and A’s at 17-16.)
Something I didn't note about Jeffress before
He had a 10/2 GO/AO ratio. Very nice.
He's extremely quick and good.
4 straight road wins now, too
If I’m eyeballing it correctly, that’s the first time since June 13-16 last year. The last time prior to that was way back in 2004, June 26 to July 1st (5 game winning streak!).
Close
I believe they haven’t swept a 3 game series on the road since June 29-July 1, 2004 in Colorado. They swept a 2-game series in Pittsburgh to start 2005.

Lee grounds into fielder's choice
Rooster Ramirez singles in another run 7-5. Its like blood in the water. Anybody on the Orioles got some avocados?
Murton
That won’t help his stock in the Cubs’ organization.

Heh
A franchise that let Corey Patterson roam around center for four years would probably really like Tony Gwynn, Jr.

Seems like something's wrong with Marmol
I of course don’t want anyone to be hurt or anything, but if he inexplicably lost his command for the next month or so I would not be sad about it.
In tonight's feature event
...of George Sherill loading the bases with nobody out, the role of Bill Hall will be played by Ronny Cedeno.

bk, if you're around
Zack Jackson and Hernan Irabarren have merged in the 40-man roster widget on the left side there, they’re on the same line- you might want to fix that up a bit.
The season has become too weird
First Bill Hall is brought in as a defensive replacement for someone, and now the Cubs use Henry Blanco as a pinch hitter. I expect Armando Benitez to be called into a one-run, bases-loaded, no out jam soon enough.
C. Magruder scored, R. Weeks to second on balk
should've stopped the game and done something
I guess for a video presentation they’d have to bring out a tv on a cart.
They wanted to do that, I hear
But all they could find in the Wrigley Field storerooms were old newsreel projectors.

Oh the Rodents of Unusal Size?
I don’t believe in them

Braves fan game recap
Let’s see: 3 errors in the 1st inning, 1 RBI “double” in the 2nd to BJ in LF (terrible misplay, ran in instead of back), 4 total errors, 2 by Frenchy, first 9 batters all got out, TWO line-drive DPs to 1B, Esco tossed for slamming his helmet when he got doubled off 1st, only 5 hits on offense against a 5 ERA pitcher, and 1 XBH. We completely suck.
CBS has declared
but there’s a magical team ahead of the cubs 1/2 game behind:P (figure that one out)

Haha
