Mik 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2003 This game is so up and down. Damn Lenny Harris just got thrown out at home for a double play! C'mon all we need is just this one game to bring a split back home. Already sold over 50,000 seats for Fridays' game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfaJack 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2003 Already sold over 50,000 seats for Fridays' game! Bunch of bandwagoners.... Seriously, that's great. I remember how rocking Pro Player was during the '97 World Series. Between that place and Wrigley, Friday is gonna be one rockin' day for baseball! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2003 Well that was certainly a crazy play in the Cubbies game. I think it was HR personally. Go Marlins baby! Got the split in SF after coming back from 4-1 and 5-4. I'm pumped about this series now. Florida is gonna be NUTS! with 55,000+ in Pro Player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2003 Prolly would've been better off if it had been a homer, cuz at least it would've gotten home one more than they ended up getting. Good way to work up his pitch count in the first inning, but to go up there with the bases loaded, nobody out, and proceed to strike out in the next three at-bats, well that's just poor baseball. They got lucky on that play at the plate, too. Hopefully, they can keep at Hampton early on and get into their pen early on, as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2003 Know who Fox didn't show enough of ? Kerry Wood's wife. Who cares? If she had been some ugly broad, then yeah, maybe I'd care, but as it was, I had no problem looking at her. She has nothing to do with the game. Constantly showing the pitchers wife makes Fox look even more 2nd rate with their coverage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2003 It's not even so much that Hampton's pitching that great. The Cub hitters are just really helping him out by swinging at bad pitches. That pitch count's gotta be getting up there (not that hight, but still) for Hampton, already. If the Cubs can put together some more threats, they'll drive him out of the game early.

Guest Smues Report post Posted October 2, 2003 I know my Braves will strand the bases loaded, but damn that was some good work getting the lead, and that ball off of Zambrano sure took off into foul territory quick. Go ball, help the Braves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2003 I ask this...is it really that hard to play small ball? That's how the Braves got back into the game and eventually took the lead. They've got 11 hits, not one has been for extra bases. Maybe if the Cubs could play some small ball they'd still be winning. Easier said than done, but it's still frustrating to sit by and watch, especially when you consider how the game started off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2003 Wow, Karros just redeemed himself somewhat by hanging in there and eventually getting the hit. Finally, they play small ball and it pays off. Simon shoulda prolly hung up there at first, but at least it's a new game, with Smoltz already used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
