7/25 Cardinals

The ending sucked, but that was one of the most entertaining Cubs games I've ever been to. If only...

BTW, for those that watched, did Ryan really hold the bag at second on the play in the 10th? I didn't think it was even close live, but then I read somewhere the ump got it right.

Do most female Cubs fans even know how short he is? My guess is no. Then again, chicks always seem to gravitate toward meatheads.

He's 5'11" according to his bio, which probably makes him 5'10".

The ump did get it right, but it was very close.

He held the bag. Somehow he kept his back foot on the base before the throw pulled him off. It was pretty close, but the ump got it right.

Fukudome sucks. Schlitter, Russel and Berg left to use, someone was going to give up a long ball. What a shitty ending, especially that spin top swinging at a ball a billion feet out of the strike zone. God he blows.

Thought it was a gutty effort, too bad couldn't complete the sweep. That would have been nice. And by the way, Mr. Poohole owns Dempster.

Any reason Lou opted against bunting over runners in the last few innings? Seemed there was almost always someone on first with no outs the final few innings.

Soto was the one of those hitters towards the end, and it would've been kind of a waste to burn him with a bunt when he's been hot lately....plus that would've left it up to theriot to drive in the run, which isn't likely to happen.

I'm not sure if I would've had Colvin move over Fuk either. Maybe, but up until last night, he was hitting the ball pretty hard too.

I'm getting the feeling that willis doesn't care much for Fukudome.

You would be correct. Ever since about June or July of 2008, I figured out this dude's act. And that is one of the things that started my turn against Piniella. For no reason, 0.0 reason, did that spinning ballerina (SP?) deserve to be in the fucking two-hole in the NLDS that year. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/shakehead.gif[/img]
