Cubs vs. D-backs official thread

[mjb21aztd]

damn cubs have a guy on 3rd and 2nd no one out

 

[mjb21aztd]

darn cubs just tie it up 2-2 they have guys on 3rd and 1st no one out , aww man to make matters worse it was Lilly who got the hit to bring in the tieing run....

 

[Dback Jon]

Come on Davis - bear down...

 

[Dback Jon]

Scrubs take lead...

 

[Dback Jon]

Co-Jack!!

Triple - cuts the margin to one.


Now - zero outs, man on third...git er done.

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Brutal. Can't get the run in.

 

[Lefty]

Reynolds really screwed up this inning. What a waste.

 

[Lefty]

Wow, Grace is questioning the "Mad Scientist."

 

[UncleChris]

Chris Young is simply a clown.... That was just awful. CoJack can be understood.... the ball was hit so hard there was no way he was going to get back to 3rd. Young was just idiotic.

We see to have an alergy to over-500 baseball....

 

[UncleChris]

Reynolds really screwed up this inning. What a waste.

Maybe he'll get the golden sombrero or even the Texas star tonight. Either that or the Quasimodo Award for fielding.

 

[Dback Jon]

Can't believe - wait, yes I can - no outs, man on third, and he doesn't score

 

[Dback Jon]

Well, two out of three ain't bad...

 

[UncleChris]

What a colossal friggin' embarrassment. Melvin has been a complete moron tonite. And there's plenty of others, like Reynolds who have chipped in to kill us.

Now DBJ is correct... we should be happy with 2 out of 3 against the best record in the NL... But this was a game we could have won. Sweet, weepin' gee-a-zuz...


BTW..... Nice grand friggin' slam.....

 

[mjb21aztd]

well thats your ball game cubs hit a grand slam now 10-3 top 8th but hey atleast we took two games and the dodgers did lose tonight would have been nice to make some ground though

 

[Nasser22]

Yeah, bright side is we won the series against the best team in the NL. We have our top 3 starts going up against a terrible San Fran team and then we play the worst team in our division right after. DBacks have the division lead and will soon get another chance at the Dodgers. And they seem to have figured things out again so now we just wait for some of our injured players to come back and we'll be ready to make a strong run to the postseason

 

[Lefty]

Golden Sombrero for Reynolds. As for the series against the Giants, Saturday's game is going to be a tough one to win even with Webb pitching. The Diamondbacks have to face one of the best in Linsicum.

 

[mjb21aztd]

ugh sigh man only if davis could have shown up these past games he has been getting run support to little to late i'm afraid but good for my fantasy team thanks drew heh

 

[Nasser22]

Hey, we're still in "slam range". And more good news...Snyder has found his swing again after his injury.

 

[mjb21aztd]

hey just curious when was the last time the dbacks did hit a grandslam seems like forever

 

[Nasser22]

Maybe Tony Clark last year

 

[TJ]

hey just curious when was the last time the dbacks did hit a grandslam seems like forever

Byrnes this year against Atlanta.....his only highlight of the year

 

[Desert Rat]

What is Owings' purpose on this team? Is he a starter? Is he a reliever? He's not much of a batter, anymore, but that didn't figure in.

If they had a decent right fielder playing, the grand slam would have been a sac fly. Burke made the one catch in foul territory, but the one the fan fished in may have been caught by Upton (DL) or even the demoted Salazar, who made some highlight-reel grabs last year. Young was too late in his pursuit.

A long road trip up and down the left coast awaits...

I don't mind a lefty-righty platoon if done on a regular basis and from a position of strenth.

Burke has had some hits recently, but look at his batting average. It's one you'd expect from a backup Shortstop or Catcher, not a Right Fielder.

Jack of all trades. Master of none. Absolutely none.
