That worked out fine, though.

Wow, Marmol made Wilson look silly. His knees buckled on the first 2 sliders, and then he swung way ahead of the 3rd one.

McClouth was 5 for 6 against Marmol before that AB. And he was just frozen on strike 3 right down the middle (FB).

It would be nice if Marmol doesn't #### this up, though...

Uh, where's this doubt in Marmol coming from?

Probably just the leadoff walk.

It would be nice to light Jesse Chavez in his debut and get a little insurance here.

So Kerru will definitely be out tomorrow vs. Hamels. This is why Howry really shoulda pitched the 9th yesterday.

107. Moses Taylor didn't fall far from the awesome tree Posted: August 27, 2008 at 02:53 PM (#2918840)

Cubs win!

108. Stevens Posted: August 27, 2008 at 02:54 PM (#2918841)

Just thought I'd drop in and say Kerru!

109. retro-shiite Posted: August 27, 2008 at 02:54 PM (#2918842)

Wow. Great, quick work by Kerru.

33 games over for the first time since 1945. Pedal to the metal.

Kerru was nasty that inning. Hard cheese to get LaRoche. Slider froze Moss. Sanchez smoked that last one, but right to Theriot who knocked it down very defensively.

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner ---- 17 - 12 down the stretch???? Can we do it????

Why set our sights so low?

115. Bunny Vincennes Posted: August 27, 2008 at 02:56 PM (#2918851)

Nice sweep, boys.

116. Moses Taylor didn't fall far from the awesome tree Posted: August 27, 2008 at 02:56 PM (#2918853)

Good point, retro. The Cubs can win 112 if they don't lose again.

117. Weeks T. Olive Posted: August 27, 2008 at 02:56 PM (#2918854)

Count it.

25.

Hell yes!

119. Andere HUSSEIN Richtingen, Socialist Posted: August 27, 2008 at 03:03 PM (#2918859)

Yay!

120. VoodooR Posted: August 27, 2008 at 03:37 PM (#2918921)
