But it certainly helps when you keep throwing consecutive pitches right down the middle of the plate. Nonetheless they didn’t take they’re foot off the pedal.

Wells best year was last
Many observers predicted a regression or that he’d never be as good. Unfort. he’s proving them right. Send him to the pen, he’s been far worse than Gorzolanny.
Carpenter can be had too but it’s gonna be tough to bounce back from THAT!! Wonder what he’ll say afterwards?
Regression?
To what?

I'm not saying that he shouldn't play
but he shouldn’t be batting 2nd or leading off. He is a 7 or 8 hitter.

Well, Len and Bob said it was a "straight steal"
So I was wondering why in the hell Lou would call that. Now, others here are saying that it was a botched hit and run. I’m watching and working — so I was going off of what Len and Bob said.
That, exactly, was my point.

How is it wrong?
On a hit and run the batter swings. Always.
You don’t instruct your hitter to swing no matter where the pitch is with three balls.
Then he takes ball 4.
The runners are in motion on a 3-2 or they aren’t. It’s not automatic.

Badger is right here kander
Lee took thinking it was ball 4. But it was a hit and run call, not a steal call
"Manny Trillo is coming in to pinch run. You know, for a lot of teams, you would pinch run for Manny Trillo." - Harry Caray
Oh, I'm pretty sure I do.
Tell me, then. When Don Zimmer would send the runners with the bases loaded, less than 2 out on a 3-2 pitch, was that a straight steal?
It’s a hit and run. The absolute “the batter swings no matter what” is YOUR term. You are incorrect. The batter does not need to swing at an obvious ball 4. No manager would fine a player for walking in that situation. But I guarantee that they don’t have a separate sign for it, just because there is “no such thing”. They use the hit and run sign.

What a complete and utter bed-shitting by the Cubs
They had played well recently, getting within 4 games of first and creeping back towards .500 after playing some TERRIBLE baseball the first two months.
Then their archrivals (and presumed favorites to win the division) come to town for a huge weekend series. What happens? The Cards get six straight hits to start the game, and the Cubs run into a mind-numbing double play.
Odds this series will be a Cards sweep? Even.

I'm still steamed that they didn't pummel carpenter when they had the chance..
Freakin’ botched hit and run – against the CARDINALS.. That’s so damned embarassing. The chances of doing anything off this guy the rest of the game are pretty low, and we had a chance to blast him into next week. This is why the cardinals win and we don’t – it has nothing to do with skill, but everything to do with smart baseball. Idiotic, and inexcusable.

Much more peeved about the offense than Wells..
Wells day is an aberration – but the offensive problems are chronic visitors to Cubs games – no reason they shouldn’t get a run each time they have a guy in second with no outs – and get RISP numbers. That’s what drives me nuts about this team.

He's not and it's particularly irritating because this is finally an easy fix for Lou.
Others were hard to figure out what to do…specially Rami earlier when we didn’t know if he was injured. But Lou had an easy out here and its glaring he didn’t take it. Specially with his own darn comments he might. Sigh.

I really didn't think we were going to win today with carpenter going for them
I think Wells may have fallen back to earth, I was skeptic about Rich Hill and I have never bought Randy Wells. He is the kind of pitcher who needs everything working in his favor to be decent and little things out of whack can make his outings get ugly real quick.
I really hope Silva can keep doing what he did so far.
Wait, what?
The Cards are good because they hit Wells? The Iowa Cubs could have hit like that off of Wells today. James Russell with less than 16 IPs to his MLB career just shut them down for 4 IPs. If you just want to dump on the team, well that’s your call I guess.
