That's sweet. 2 outs and nobody on, than 3 straight singles.

If we do these 3 things today, I'll be satisfied:

 

1. Drill Aramis Ramirez.

2. Score 2+ runs by racking up hits, not home runs.

3. Win.

 

:fthecubs :fthecubs

We finished #2, I hope we do #1, and we're well on our way to #3.

 

BA can have a good 3 game streak too.....

It's just funny that nobody (besides the usual culprits in the game threads) was saying ANYTHING when his average was above .250, which it has been most of the season. It's just plain comical.

I'll always have to hand it to Cotts for saving us from a fate worse than death: 2005 Damaso Marte.

I like BA and want him to succeed, but to say Wise sucks is ridiculous. He has been more than serviceable for us.

seriously...hahahahaha....I just really don't like DeWayne

Wow, Edmonds reacted like that was a pop up

Oh for f***s sake

If you pitch Edmonds inside, he will get himself out.

I'd like to have gotten 7 out of Jose, but I'd rather see Russell or Masset now.

He did that same thing on his first HR of the 2 he hit in the 4th in the 2nd game at Wrigley.

I didn't say anything about Wise (right here, anyway), I mean in however many limited ABs he's had he's hitting over .300 and he deserves props for that, but I don't think it's unfair at all to say he's sucked as a major league hitter before this year.

UN-f***ING-BELIEVABLE. And again...the next guy up doesn't go down.

Much better outing for Jose than the last.

UN-f***ING-BELIEVABLE. And again...the next guy up doesn't go down.

Jeez, settle down dude. Its 9-3.

Nice game Jose!

100% Agreed.

Nah, that was his, "I know it is gone now let me stand here so the others homosexuals can look at me" reaction.

It's still a QS but there really wasn't much reason to have Jose out there to start the 7th, he came into the inning at 96 pitches.

the expectations for Jose have taken such a roller coaster route. we're back at what we thought we'd get. a #4 or #5 guy.

Actually I think Edmonds might have hurt himself again

Up 7, try and save the pen from another inning. Jose has a rubber arm. No problem leaving him out there. Ozzie yanking him at right time.

Actually I think Edmonds might have hurt himself again

He hurt himself earlier running to 1st- maybe it's some after effects.

Ya! That will show'em, lets put another Cub on base for no reason!

 

Did I say hit him?!?...NO!!! Thank you.

Nothing pisses me off more than relievers coming into the game not throwing strikes. Especially when you're up 6 runs in the 7th ining.

Come on, Boone.
