No like the picture

I think Len and Bob
just mentioned the Ankiel injury.
Couldn’t tell but that’s what it sounded like
Have not heard
What is this Ankiel injury you speak of?
ran head-first into the wall
chasing down a catch

He was catching a fly ball and ran head first into the wall
Couldnt get his hands up to brace

Ankiel overhustled in the outfield...
and now he might be looking at a trip to the DL. Worst of all, the Cards signed him to pitch, not chase balls in the outfield.

Dumb unnecessary play! Ankiel is a hitter...nothing else. He should know better than to try something like that!

There's Gregg's one walk he's allowed before Lou goes ballistic

Gregg has almost a walk per inning so far this year.
Not too cool.
"I'm not much of a chemistry guy, you know. Chemistry to me is a pinch-hit double with the bases loaded"--Jim Frey, Chicago Tribune, 1985.
Full count
And we go back, Jack, and do it again.

At least he puts titles on them so you can collapse them.

Another nice victory
The Cubs took what they were given, and Dempster pitched a great game.
Nice to have this one in the pocket before they face LIncecum tomorrow.
by Not Bruce Froemming on May 4, 2009 9:59 PM CDT reply actions
Agreed. Now let's hope they slap Timmay around like a PS3 game tomorrow!

Did they face him last season?
I remember when they rallied in the ninth to beat him in SF in 2007.
by Not Bruce Froemming on May 4, 2009 10:01 PM CDT up reply actions
Nope, he was 2-0 with a 2.57 ERA against us last year
Struck out 17 and walked only in 14 IP.
We’ve got our work cut out for us

Oh, you know
I just LOVE how the cameramen ALWAYS seem to find that 1908 flag flapping in the breeze after practically EVERY single game.
I wish the Pirates could have hung on.
They’ve lost 17 straight against the Brewers now. Oh the ineptitude

Seriously I like it though

I just saw the articles on ESPN
I see that Z is going on the DL….I’ve tweaked a hammy myself, and it’s no fun. I do hope Ankiel is ok though. I don’t like seeing anybody get hurt and have to leave the game like that
