ump is giving him a giant zone
transfer from Zell shell company to offshore account must have gone through
I don't complain about the strike zone too much
But it sure seems like a lot of close calls have gone the Cubs way. Now Fielder has to lead off the inning, yuck.

That's crap sandwich to you, sir.

So the team needs to rally
And say… we can’t let CC get his first loss… not this season

I can't wait to watch Soriano go 0 for 30 in the playoffs.

the way everything possible has gone well for the Cubs
if they don’t win the series, I would expect a spate of suicides among the fandom
soriano curtain call
no one was calling for it
Let's hope the baseball gods saw it

If only Albert Pujols was around to be awakened

Saw that
If he makes the playoffs and we don’t I’ll be rooting for him. But I’ll be very sad.

It's nice to see...
… someone step up. Even if we don’t make the playoffs, at least someone has gotten up off the mat and put together some big hits.

Gameday is making up rules
Batter on first, no one out, and Brian McCann “pops out to second baseman Chase Utley on the infield fly rule.”
Oops.

mets and astros lost tonight, so….win this, and three way tie for wild card, as well as the NL East lead…
Mets would be half a game behind the Phillies, wouldn’t they?
Obscure baseball records and more at my blog, Recondite Baseball.
Yes.
The Phillies don’t matter, in my opinion. They’re going to win their division. The Mets are the team we need to keep losing…
… and the Astros.

Kendall's spot is going come up yet
Who’s it going to be?
My only regret is that I have but one life to give to my blog
Go for it!
(A bit late on the permission, though not necessary to ask permission to borrow any phrases of mine ever.)
Bye Ned!
Soto
Kendall would have caught that and then did a cartwheel.
We've got uniforms and everything, it's really great!
Cardinal fans
would not be pleased with Marmol after that.
How unprofessional.

If Kendall bats...
The Dale Sveum Era is a failure.

Small sample size alert.
Lamb and Hall have both hammered Wood.
normally i dont
but not tonight

check that...

Corey
Has not been on his game lately. Luckily Ramirez watched his single.
We've got uniforms and everything, it's really great!
I'm a Corey fan.....
…. but I sure as hell wish Gabe were healthy right now.

He's been a lot better against them
this year. Something about his changeup
The grounder was relatively close to second base

yeah...
doesn’t he play for LA now or something?:P

After fouling off a bunch of pitches, no less

Too bad the guys ahead of him reached base 8 of 10 times up

I don't know
it’s not like Philly sports are a gleaming example of success
September 15: Not a bad little Monday
Sveum, if you don't want to be second guessed,
WIN THE GAME.
P.S. I wouldn’t leave Kendall in if you know whats good for you.
this is blanco minute here at BCB

Shouse gets to face Hank White now

its ova rocky
The designated hitter rule is like letting someone else take Wilt Chamberlain's free throws.
I think a pitcher has to face at least one batter. If only we had a switch pitcher.
We've got uniforms and everything, it's really great!
Yeah
Once Shouse was brought in to face Ward, he had to face the guy the Cubs put in for Ward.

that he could have walked him

um
i know it was Blanco, but with Fuku on deck, wouldn’t an IBB have been a good idea?

NO INTENTIONAL WALKS
Didn’t you learn from Ned?
it's okay
as long as you don’t let him pitch to a righty after the walk
by PagsBrewCrew on Sep 17, 2008 3:13 PM CDT up reply actions
Good new I guess
I think the Brewers score 3 earlier this year on Wood when he was trying to close a game

and again on may 1st

Dale Fail
I don’t have a problem with that move really. Just the result.
Ward always seems to nail the Crew.

how many people around the country are looking at the new skipper’s name and laboring over the pronunciation?
“How do you say that?”
“Swame.”
“You sure? It looks like…uh….Sah-vay-um.”
“Nope, just like I said it.”
“You sure? Not Sah-vame?”
“Nope, Swame. One syllable, that’s it.”
“Well,” he answered, the doubt still dripping from the corners of his mouth, “if you say so.”
who
will be our manager next season? Bobby Valentine?

But you need a guy who can get on base
Or something or other.

veteran grit needs to come through

He hardly ever swings at the first pitch
Hardy is the same way.

ugh
even if we played with more “grit” tonight under Dale, it would have been nice to do so against someone other than the best team in the National League

any pitch at which we don’t swing for the rest of this game?
