PrintSince yesterday's game was eminently forgettable, let's relive some of the good plays and interesting moments from Wednesday night's win:
Mark DeRosa catches Brian Roberts' (who?) fly ball in the 1st inning
Aramis Ramirez scores the Cubs' third run on Geovany Soto's single
Mike Fontenot catches Melvin Mora's popup in the 3rd inning
During an 8th inning pitching change, Orioles outfielders appear to be having a prayer meeting

Once again
great pictures! Too bad the game was terrible. I especially appreciated the prayer meeting… maybe the O’s had divine intervention. Let’s hope the gods nod our way today.
We never give up -- Aramis Ramirez
Why not, we had a bad series right before we saw the Sox last week.
and that series went our way. Let’s hope for a similar crosstown series this weekend.

Those photos are from Wednesday night...
... which was a GOOD game.

Yeah, me too.
Let’s get rid of it at 3:05 today!

There was a game yesterday?!
I guess I must have blocked it out of my mind.

Also, the Brewers did not play.
So, all things considered, the Cubs dodged a bullet with yesterday’s horrific loss. New day. New series.
Nanika Ga Okoru!
And I got to catch the replay
of the tenth inning on FSN last night. That helped.
I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling, so why don't we just ignore each other til we go away.

I wish it was a 1:20 game in stead of 3pm

Not me.
I get off at 4 so I’ll get to catch most of the game.
But I have to watch it on WGN. :(

Just turn the sound off!

you sure? Len & Bob were on CSN last week when it was at Wrigley
...and WGN had Heckle and Jeckyl.
Logic, decency and fair play would suggest that they flip announcers for today’s game, no?
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
Yes, I'm sure.
That’s what it says on both team’s websites.

TIVO says
the post-game show on WGN is “White Sox Wrapup,” so it’s going to Hawk and DJ on the WGN feed.

You know it.
Don’t get Pat and Ron out here so it looks like a “watch Cubs game, listen to music” kind of day.

Save the Van Halen for after the game
For fifteen bucks get MLB Gameday Audio and then you CAN listen to Pat & Ron for every game.
Is that in real time?
Or is there a delay?

it's "kind of" real time
the feed is usually about 2-3 seconds behind the game—if you have a dvr, you can mess around to synch them

ok thanks...
that’s not too bad. i think i’ll check that out.

minor delay
a little dvr pause-and-play and you can get them in synch – otherwise the MLB.tv radio feed is about a pitch behind – the video feed for MLB.tv is even further delayed (~2-3 pitches)
Win.

argh
I’m in a huge project today; I’d no idea that the game started during work hours!
plot, plot, plot… AH-HAH! I HAVE YOU NOW!

Love those game-ending Kerry Wood shots.
It would be cool if, at season’s end, someone compiled those and created a slideshow.
Nanika Ga Okoru!
For all the doom and gloom
after yesterday’s game I looked this morning and we are still in first place 19 games over 500. Sometimes I wonder.
Oh and Happy birthday to Jim Edmonds, 38 today. Still a youngster.
"In football the object is for the quarterback, also known as the
field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the
defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy in spite of the
blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and
long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this
aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in
the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.
"In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! - I hope I'll
be safe at home!"

Let's hope
he gives a fan or two a gift today.

Yup.
We gotta win today or tomorrow to get 50 before the halfway point of the season.
