If a woman has to choose between catching a fly ball and saving an infant's life, she will choose to save the infant's life without even considering if there are men on base. - Dave Barry

Caught this right before we went to the new thread. Love that quote!

Ward was out, and you knew he was going to be out.
Still, worthwhile risk with a 4-run lead.

He was so out.
I knew it the second he turned the corner.

Low was Lazy to not put in PR for Ward
we know Ward is S-L-O-W…. small thing but why the heck not be aggressive and stick ONEDEC or even Marquis in there as a Pinch Runner—let’s hope that won’t matter (just saw error) but why not press the situation????
great shot on the replay of a guy in the background w/a Cubbies jersey taunting his Cards buddy
after that wild throw by Springer. Classic.
Personally I think Ward should get the credit for causing that error
His personal gravity field pulled the throw off line
Thats my boy
You have to take the good with the bad
that’s what makes him a decent first baseman. Ball up 10 feet? It’ll be pulled back down, trust me.

He took BP Yesterday, not today though bc his hand was feeling a little weak

Yet we know the Cards fans will rail on
about how their team is so “fundamentally sound” and thus more worthy than the Cubs.
But thanks anyway, for misplaying the foul pop before Soto’s HR, as well as that nice infield error to allow the 6th run.
What was the deal with Perez throwing at DeRosa?
Or is he always that wild?

well, in theory, when you have a bad day, if you have a temper you are
going to go home and beat something.
Didn’t you see that look on his face after that strike out earlier in the game? He was ready to punch something. I just assumed it was going to be his dog.

As much as i love Marmol
I am glad he didnt get selected to the ASG.
This way he can be fully rested once play resumes after the ASG.

Let me see if I have this straight...
1. The Cubs have the best record in the NL.
2. They’ve played more road games than home games.
3. One of their projected starters had a nuclear meltdown.
4. Their LF has been on the DL twice.
5. Their top set-up man was terrible the first 6 week.
And they might not be for real????
