Cubs vs Dbacks - Round One 2007 Playoffs

[Cheesebeef]

Very impressed with our fans, seems like only 15% of the crowd is cubs fans.

does anyone remember the series four years ago when the Cubs played the Braves in the first round - in a deciding Game 5 on the road, it looked like there was 60% Cub fans there. Solid from our fans not to let them take over in Game 1 tonight.

Come on boys! Let's get some runs!

[HooverDam]

Ug, when you throw it over Tony Clarks head, you know its a bad throw

 

[Lefty]

Is the roof open? I can't really tell. Looked like it was but isn't it still pretty hot out there?

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Yes.

What they probably did (see: what they usually do) is close it a few hours before game time and turn on the AC, then they open it right before the game. Since warm air rises, if they keep the panels closed, most of the cool air stays in the stadium. Though if you are in the far upper deck, it gets hot.

Nice, weather channel says its 92 there is that pretty comfortable at night there? I thought they usually kept the roof closed when it was that hot.

[Lefty]

Webb needs to settle down and get this out.

 

[Lefty]

Crap, 1-1 and the bases loaded.

 

[Lefty]

Thankfully they only get one.
