I have been wondering how to make that happen, I go to school at University of Georgia so I had to buy MLB.TV Premium which I have to use to watch all the non- WGN Games, and listening to the opposing teams broadcast team is torture. Listening to Don Sutton and his ignorant side kick tonight for the Nationals game was brutal, almost as brutal as Howry. But if you could please let me know how to get that setup I would greatly appreciate it I really miss Ron & Pat. I assume the audio feed is in sync with the video feed?

I would agree with you.

The one thing that Riot has going for him is a lot of intelligence…he might figure out how to improve his hitting enough (e.g., like DLee did a few years ago) to make himself into a good OBP SS. So far, he can only be called a really good backup.

cash out to homeruns, and 27 years old’s don’t discover untapped power. Theriot is what he is. Ride the hot streaks when you can, but the Cub are going to have to get themselves a real SS sometime soon.

They were winning 4-3 going into the bottom of the 8th. That breaks their four game winning streak.

I’m a little nervous about this week for the Cubs. Two games at home against the Met, who aren’t the Pirates. And then, two games at Coors against the Rockies. After last year, I don’t want the Cubs playing the Rocks when they are hot.
