2008 - Jeff Suppan 1-0 5 5 0 0 0 0 31.0 29 12 12 4 10 11 3.48 1.26

Dempster has thrown well all year so far, though he again walked way too many in his last outing. He's already beaten the Brewers once this month. Jason Kendall hits him hard -- 13-for-28 lifetime (.464).

Similarly, Jeff Suppan has a win against the Cubs earlier this month. Lifetime he's got a very good record in Wrigley Field -- 4-2, 3.36 in nine starts -- and one Cub, Derrek Lee, pound him (18-for-39, 6 doubles, 4 HR, 9 walks, .462/.563/.923).

Similar pitchers on a nicer weather night than last night. Go Cubs!

Once again for you out of towners, a WCIU game is on ESPN and so available nationally. There's no Milwaukee area TV so I'm pretty sure everyone gets this. See also today's MLB.com Mediacenter. There are only six more WCIU games, all Mondays or Wednesdays, which are days ESPN does games, so there's a fair chance many of them could be picked up by ESPN. The next one is Wednesday, May 14.

Went last night too. As well as the 3 baseball games in 2 days last week (wrote a fanpost about it). I think i’m getting too old for this, it’s wearing me down. Now I know how Al must feel every day :)

I was there last night as well

My buddy left in the 7th right before the cubs brought it to within 2. Stayed the rest of the game myself….ended up buying a new hoodie, winter hat and some ridiculous looking gloves cause it was so damn cold. But it was a decent game except for the L. I’m now 5-1 this season.

Is ESPN blacked out in Chicago?

I’d normally prefer the local telecast, but I don’t think WCIU has HD (though I have heard from some on this blog that they use the advanced monkey-on-a-tricycle method to beam out their signal.)

by SuperContext on Apr 30, 2008 4:11 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

WCIU in HD...

i actually noticed that the last WCIU game was in HD – though i didn’t notice until the 7th inning…

IIRC, it was channel 174 on Comcast, and the guide listed something other than the game but it was there. Then again as much as i like the HD broadcasts, i’d rather watch Len and Bob in SD than ESPN in HD, but that’s just me…

He did it last game as well

I remember the Pittsburgh announcers caught it, which made me notice it as well.

No idea why he does it, though; probably just something that calms him down. Kind of how like Kurt Warner use to thumb the side of his butt before he asked for the ball.

he knew it was a bad call. Still, it’s gotta be frustrating, getting robbed like that after working so hard on improving his hitting.

it's odd

and maybe it answers cubsfan25’s question as to why it can take so long to take advantage of at bats… Even after his show of inability to hit that sharp breaking ball that I’ve described, guess how many I’ve seen the Brewer’s pitchers throw? 1. Soto took one yesterday for ball 3 in his second at bat. And thats it, even though he swung at numerous pitches in washington, the brewers have given him one of them…

I'd like to tak this oppertunity to...

Once again decry WCIU, and call out WGN, CSN, CSN+, MLB.tv, and both ESPN and ESPN 2

WCIU means that I, as a downstate Cubs fan, don’t get to see it.

WGN because they’re shoing CORNER FREAKING GAS right now instead of the Cubs game.

CSN because they’re showing the White Sox. Nobody cares about the White Sox.

CSN+ I don’t know what they’re showing, but it ain’t the Cubs.

MLB.tv because even if I had it, I wouldn’t be able to watch Cubs games on it. They would black out the Cubs’ tradational regions, which includes downstate Illinois.

ESPN for showing ESPN News instead of the Cubs game. They could show blacked-out baseball games based on region.

And ESPN 2 for showing pro-bowling instead of my proposed idea of ESPn showing blackedout games based on region.
