Marmol vs Mark Reynolds next inning should be comical.

 

Reynolds, fathom?

Holy cow, that might be the most surprising homer I've seen since Pods off of Lidge. You had the guy with the nasty K/9 inning numbers against the guy who K's a ton.

 

BTW, did anyone get worried that it might not have been gone due to the camera angle and Stockton not sounding excited?

Welcome to the playoffs Mr. Marmol.

Mark Reynolds is my boy/

Will Melvin go to Lyon or leave Webb in there?

To have him ready for 3 days rest. However, if they were going to pull him early, they should have had a ph for him with the bases loaded.

 

Yeah he's ready for 3 days rest now, but their 6 outs from losing against Webb and one of the best bullpens in the league. It's October, if your worrying about pitch counts and 3 days rest, your making a major error. Lou has managed a horrid game tonight.

I agree with you...not having Zambrano bunt earlier was just terrible.

I really wish he'd let Webb start the 8th, especially to face Ramirez and Floyd.

Welcome to the playoffs Mr. Marmol.

 

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

I was just thinking that when he was overthrowing against his first batter in the playoffs. After that HR though, Marmol looks more comfortable out there.

 

 

And fathom you should have said Salazar.

Arizona still has Conor Jackson on the bench, you might see him here soon.

 

EDIT: There he is on deck, haha wow that was good timing. I swear I typed that before they showed him.

That might be as far as Ojeda can hit the ball.

AUGIE OJEDA!!!!!!!!!! THE FORMER CUB LEGEND STRIKES!!!!!!

 

HAHAHAHA, like I said earlier it'd be funny if he makes a key play, and there it is.

Yes!!! 3-1 Zona.

 

They are gonna need run support.

Great job CoJack! Another bad managing move, as Jackson is a contact hitter. Should have walked him to get to Young, who would have a tough time hitting Marmol.

How golden would it be if Augie Ojeda turns out to come up with a key play that kills the Cubs in this series?

 

Well that didn't take long, at least in regards to potentially killing them in a game.

 

Nice job by Jackson there getting that insurance run in. Come on Chris Young!!!!

 

Ah well, got a deuce. Hold on D'Backs!!!!

Good call. My god was that a terrible AB.

I was thinking the same thing, I was shocked there wasn't an IBB there. They had Eyre warm too, so if you walk Jackson and K Young, you can use Eyre for Drew. I'm shocked at how bad a night Lou has had.

that one worried me for a second.

PHEW, that's the 2nd time Ramirez has gone out to the track I believe.

DAMN another one to the track, at least they are outs though.

Reynolds with a great play

Very good inning for Lyon. Nice play by Reynolds (for once)

Excellent inning by Lyon! He's been superb vs the Cubs this year. I'll take at least a two run lead into the 9th inning with Valverde on the mound every game.

YES, good inning and now it's 7-8-9 due up in the 9th against Valverde. I like where this is going.
