He needs to do a lot better in the 2nd half. Mark Buehrle and Freddy Garcia have been doing their job (even Garland has). A very good performance after the All-Star Break won’t cut it. He’ll need to do it for the rest of the year. We have our 5 starting pitchers, but not all of them have been giving it their best. Once they do, we will look more dominant.

I have noticed the gong hasn’t been offensive at all with any background. It really does get the crowd up on its feet and has been a very good entry for a fine closer.

The problem with Santana (7-6) is that he hasn’t received any run support as of late. Bring him to the south side of Chicago and the Sox will give him the run support he deserves

That sound was all over the place. You notice Godzilla was on the big screen TV once Shingo earned the save? I thought it was pretty cool knowing that the monster (Godzilla) is also from Japan

Looks like this thread is useless since Carpenter only went 3.2 innings.

I'm sure us Sox fans will erupt as well if the Cards do beat up on the Cubs

Hawk said Garland will pitch on Thursday, MB for Friday, Saturday is for Garcia, and Sunday is undecided.

And now 40yr. old Alou hits a double. You can tell Carpenter doesn't have it today.

Corky must be using cork bats again.

Looks like the Cards are in trouble right now.

Which episode are they showing?

Nice

Cubs @ STL For those of you who can’t get enough of baseball, come in here and post away. The Flubs will try to avoid a sweep from the Cards and their second sweep in a roll. So if you want to “spam” this thread.... Go ahead :fthecubs

I went to yesterday’s game and when Takatsu came out, the whole crowd knew who was coming because it was obviously the 9th inning, it was a close game, and that one drum noise was all over the place. It’s not the first time I see Shingo at the Cell, but I just love his entrance. It is cool and pretty scary (I don’t know why, must be that drum noise) because the opposite team knows what they are getting. Anyone else notice Godzilla was on the big screen TV when Shingo closed the game? Now that was bad ass! Long live Shingo

Thank you Kenny for leaving Koch in Florida!

1 pitch 1 out.

Marte is coming. He keeps up with the 1 run lead and we might just see Mr. Zero in the 9th and head into the All-Star Break with a 4 game winning streak and 1st place in our division.

Just 7 more outs to go.

f***ing Garcia. He just doesn't have it today.

Freddy needs to get himself together and hold on to this 1 run lead.

LMFAO Anyone see Juan eating that banana? Good hit Uribe

The Idiot let's go of the ball and it's a solo HR!!! 4-3

In my humble opinion, Jose is another All-Star. He is the #1 short stop with most HR’s, but the errors he has committed and his batting average may be in the negative side.

JOSE!!!!!!! 3-3
