Top of the order coming up for the cubs, let’s get some insurance runs
Big performance
105 pitches through 8.
Do you let him finish?

Great Pitching Ted. Way to close the deal Marmol
Still brutal job from the offense though.
But, a win is a win!!!!

Good win
Lilly gets a well-deserved one. This team hasn’t won a lot of games like this, and that eventually might prove to be its downfall. But as long as you’ve got a chance, might as well win one.
Get the White Sox tomorrow. After their big comeback today, I’m hoping they’ll be a little more content instead of being hungry to salvage one victory this week.

Pretty surprising, really,
since the Astros have given the Cubs problems over the years.
Odd scheduling this season with them, too. Three road trips to Houston in about 5-6 weeks, then two series in July-Aug/Sept at Wrigley.
The only “blot” on their record vs. the Astros this year were those two, 2-1 losses in Houston in June (at least I those were the final scores).

Should be
“at least I thought those were the final scores …”
Also, those three road trips to Houston were all before the early part of June.

Why?
I think he’s right about Ozzie. Personally, I love him, although I don’t care for the White Sox at all. I think Ozzie is honest to a fault and funny as hell.
by Not Bruce Froemming on Sep 2, 2009 3:49 PM CDT up reply actions
I have nothing but contempt towards him
but this is a baseball blog, and I will keep my personal issues with him to myself.
My hatred towards the Sox will diminish exponentially once he steps down from his position. Guillén is a smart manager, but very short of being a philosopher.
I can't stand Ozzie.
I don’t think he’s as funny as he thinks he is.
