Very dejected sounding.

Hawks pretty quiet. Pinning it on the fac that it’s warm outside and it’s Wrigley. Like “Justget it up in the air and it’s probably outta here” crap.

If it weren’t for his love with pitching situations, Fontenot most likely wouldn’t have started today, as well as Patterson.

I only said NEEDS

because this is a day where you don’t want to have to destroy your bullpen in a 15-12 game. Let the Sux go through their pen and hopefully we can get Marquis through 7 and have either Wuertz or Lieber mop up. That could set the bullpen up well for the next few days.

Sometimes I wonder why anyone throws Rami a pitch

anywhere NEAR the plate when theres a RISP.

by halfblindcubbiegirl on Jun 21, 2008 1:36 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Because he's protected in the lineup.

It’s the reason Sammy had more homeruns with Grace behind him than after until we got McGriff.

the reason that was a shitty call

is the ump did not see it.

I have checked it three times on TiVo and the first base ump was not looking at Marquis. He just bought the play by AJ. What an ass. If the ump did not see it, he can not call it. All Marquis did was turn, he did not make a move to second.
