Well, it was weird.
I could swear that I clicked on the 1st overflow thread because of how many posts were in it, then when this page loaded, there was nothing, and so I was left being kinda confused for a moment.

technically, it is a fair pole
I never understood why they call it foul when it is in fair territory

better off having Dempster bat than Bradley at this point
3 terrible at bats after the HR. it is apparently ever batter for himself with this anemic offense
by BeltwayCubsFan on Jun 6, 2009 8:04 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Agreed
Only 84 pitches, and there were already 2 outs in the inning. Not much could’ve happened.

With any execution
the cubs are winning or at worst tied. Only because they have managed to strand 3 lead off doubles and a leadoff single are they down.

Demp was more consistent in the zone.

just got home
I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.
