Note how niether of Lassie’s hands are vidsible in this pic. That’s because they are groping the arses of Alf and Fuko. At least Fuko gets the glove.

Back in there and batting 6th. Anyone want to take bets this is my last weekend in a Cub uniform?

May 30th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
With Lou saying he doesn’t want to move Fukudome to CF, I have a hard time seeing them dump Lassie so soon–unless we sign Lofton or bring up Felix PA.

Bad thing about being sick: the pain one encounters when he comes in contact with anything.

Good thing about being sick: Sitting in my boxers and watching the Cubs. W00T!

The thing about that picture is that it was first presented by Andy in a thread he had already started about what is gayer than Len’s hat. It was as if Dolan planned it, because that picture win any contest. Ever.

I’m pretty fast.
Let me be blunt Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:47 pm
My new office lacks the capabilities for Gamecast, and I have no radio…I need more descriptive terms of who is on and such.
Play by Play Says:

Taveras on first on a bunt single
Play by Play Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Harris singles. Taveras to 3rd. Runners on 1st and 3rd, no outs. Great start by Lilly.

/sarcasm
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Allow me, #13. Tavars led off with a bunt single. Herrera had about a 10 pitch at-bat before lining one to right center, where jimmy so slowly reachef the ball (Brenely actually called him “lackadaisical”), Tavarez–who had not been running with the pitch, took third, and Jimmy’s 7 hopthrow didn’t get him. First and third none out.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
Spillborough lined to DeRo at third, Atkins popped out to Fuku–so shallow that Tavaras had to hold.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:54 pm
Helton goes yard. 3-0. G’uh.
Lester Strode Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:56 pm
I am today’s pitching coach.
Lilly Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:56 pm
I got nothing
Ted Lilly Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:56 pm
The fact that you’re paying me a visit in the first inning is not a good dign, Lester.
Ted Lilly Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
Or sign.

I’m really not good today. 4-0 Rox and I’ve got 2 guys out.
Lilly Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
I’ve got junk. It won’t be long now before I visit the DL
Lester Strode Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Who?
Lieber Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Warming up as quick as I can.
Jon Lieber Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Warming up already? Good thing Lou didn’t pitch me in the 9th last night. I may need to pitch a lot today.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:00 pm
Lilly nearly escapes a first and third, no-out situation, but then gives up a HR, a double, a double, and a screaming line out.

4-0 Rox. Cubs yet to bat.
Usual gamecasters Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:02 pm
Down 4-0? DOOOOOOOM!!!11!!!!
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:05 pm
You’ll know it’s the Cubs year–and not Colorado’s–if the Cubs do come back. Cook’s one of the few bright spots in the gleaming turd that the defending World Champion Rockies will be remembered as.

I’m gonna go fix me up some 1984 Kool Aid and see how it plays out.
Forfeit Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:05 pm
No A-Ram. No Riot. Rockies’ “ace” going. Might as well sit D-Lee and Fukudome, too.
Geo Soto Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
What would you ogdens say a year ago if you were told this team would be 12 over .500 on May 29th and I’d be batting cleanup?

I thought so.
Ron Santo Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Why is the Second-baseMAN playing right behind 2nd?
Schedule Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Better hope to win on Saturday and Sunday, because the Fowl get to fatten up on Pittsburgh this weekend.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Lee delivers a two-out infield hit off of Cook, Soto hits a screamer to second. 4-0.

If Lilly can settle down, the Cubs may be able to chip away at Colorado’s “ace”.
Ron's answer Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Because unless Geo is trying to hit a Sac Fly, he tends to try to yank everything, thus they play him to pull.
Willy Tavares Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
I’m getting 9 ABs this game, bitches.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
I’m sensing a lot of panicking sallies here (#30, 33).

It was as if comment #28 summoned them.
Helton's HR Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
Was wind aided, but Lilly’s had junk his last 2 starts.
Steve Rosendouche Says:

Pop out, strikeout, fly out. 1-2-3 for Freezerheads.

Remains 4-0 going into the bottom of the second.
The Real RonnyCe Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:20 pm
is back.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:20 pm
DeRosa reaches ona two out error that Jeff Baker “Soriano”‘s, but Cedeno can’t drive him in.

4-0 after 2.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
You’re a retard, #41. Do us a favor and jump, you sad, miserable sack.
butthead Says:

Soriano and Edmonds just pulled a Baker
44 Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:25 pm

Today's Gamecast Says:

I’m going to kill somebody. Really. Then I’m going to chop him up in little pieces and make Fontenot eat it.
Larry Rothschild Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
See, I’m not so bad after all.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
Edmonds “Baker”‘s a fly ball, catches the next for the second out, and then Lilly again falls apart. Homer, Double, single.

7-0 Rox, after 2 1/2.
Lou Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
I wish he’d let Lilly take the beating today.
ARRGGHHHH Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
I wish this team would just walk off the field and never come back. I’d sooner be a White Sox fan than deal with this. When’s the last time they quit like this team? Ozzie wouldn’t let them. Lou’s a big teddy bear now, though. It just makes me sick.
54. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:36 pm

I’ve been even worse than Marquis this year.
Jason Marquee Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
No you haven’t. I’m seven kinds of suck.
Chicago Cubs Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
It’s absolutely amazing we’re as good as we are with one reliable starter.

No, I still don’t trust Dempster.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Lieber in relief of Lilly, gives up a two-out HR to Spilborough. Gets the third out.

8-0.
Lucifer the Red Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:45 pm
To paraphrase my hero H. Simpson:

“Mmmmmmmm……..Pirates………makin’ me hungry…….”

C’mon, Desipiots, you know you wanna come over to the dark side and be a Feathered Fowl Fan. If it’s too big a jump, try being a Sox fan…..it’s just one step on your “eventual journey south.” Do not fear…..

Bwahahahahahahaha……

Second Out Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
All of Colorado’s runs have been scored after me.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
Lee singles. With one out, Fukkake walks. Edmonds singles. DeRo Sac Fly. Ronny grounds out.

8-1 after 4.
Cap'n Obvious Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 2:55 pm
Edmonds mixed in a hit? Really? For real? What’d that look like?
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:04 pm
Edmonds’s was actually legit. A liner to right-center.

Rockies again score with two outs when, after Jeff baker’s third double of the day, Quintanilla hits a smash that Cedeno can’t pick, but worse, allows the ball to get by him, which allows Baker to wheel around and score.

9-1, bottom 5th.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
Lieber pitches around a 1 out triple to keep the Rox off the board for only the second time since the 2nd inning.

9-1, bottom 6th.
berkeleycubfan Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Back, back, back…HEY HEY!!!
Lassie Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
Just earned a spot until the All-Star break.
Lieber Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:24 pm
Why was I batting there?
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Hoffpauer leads off with a double, Fukkake goes yard (FYC!), Edmonds hit his first homer as a Cub. DeRo and Cedeno ground out, Liever–still in the game–strikes out looking.

9-4 Rox after 6.

Anyone up for
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:26 pm
Excuse me.

Anyone up for a trip down memory lane?

If they pull that off today…..sheeeeeit
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
With 2 outs, Jeff Baker hits his fourth double of the game. That’s the end of Liever’s day. Eyre comes in to face Quesadilla, and strikes him out.

Hull, Mikita and Esposition to sing the 7th inning stretch. 9-4 Rockies.
Hull Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Pulled a Ditka, he was done with the stretch, when everyone else was singing “root, root, root for the Cubbies.”
Hank WHITE Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:39 pm
HANK KILLS THE COOK, WITH THE BAT IN WRIGLEY
berkeleycubfan Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:40 pm
Awwwe. Shit, this is getting very interesting.
Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:44 pm
With one out, Fontenot singles, and HANK WHITE gets on the board for the first time this year, 2-run shot. HOFF POWER singles on the first pitch and that marks the end of the day for Cook.

Corpas enters the game in relief of Cook, Fukkake singles. First and third, one out and the tying run is at the plate.
Lou Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:44 pm
This current lineup seems to be working. Maybe I’ll put them out there like this tomorrow.
Jim Edmonds Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
I am so grounding into a double play here
If Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:46 pm

Corpas gives up a single to Fukkake and then Edmonds hits a double to rigth center that Tavares seemed stuck into the earth on…Derosa homers…

Corpas done for the day without retiring a batter.

Believe it folks. Cubs up 10-9. 7th inning still going on.

Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 3:55 pm
Cedeno hits his 567th groundout of the day off of Jason Grilli, who then strikes out Maqruis to end the inning.

After 7, it’s 10-9 Cubs.
Marmol and Woody are next... Says:

Soriano taps out to the catcher, Fontenot grounds out sharply to Helton at first, Blanco singles, HOFF POWER strikes out swinging. No Geico insurance runs.

Kerry Wood on in the 9th for the Save. Cubs up 10-9.
BC Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 4:08 pm
Fasten.

Those.

Seatbelts.

For Cub fans, those three words strike a unique combination of excitement and fear… It means the Cubs are winning but it’s damn close.

Mike D. Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
Wood walks Spilboroughs to lead off. Wood goes 3-0 on Atkins before throwing a strike and getting a lineout to second, Spilborough doubled off for inexplicably heading to second. Helton pops out to right.

10-9 Cubs WIN. After being down 9-1 at one point, all i can say is…******* ridiculous.
BC Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 4:15 pm

May 30th, 2008 at 4:28 pm
Why do I have to earn a living in a way that I miss THIS game? I saw it at 8-0 and then it’s 10-9. Unreal
Cap'n Obvious Says:
May 30th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
so I just got off a 2 hour conference call, and see that Edmonds splooged all over himself today for a change. Wasn’t even thinking about the game…figured it was over at 7-1. As much as I can’t stand the puppy-raper, I gotta say, I don’t mind him driving in 3 runs and clutching up every so often. If I’ve got to look at his Vitalis bottle looking ass, the least he could do is go off once or twice a month and help the Cubs pick up the odd “W” Fly your flags Ogdens.

I wish this team would just walk off the field and never come back. I’d sooner be a White Sox fan than deal with this. When’s the last time they quit like this team? Ozzie wouldn’t let them. Lou’s a big teddy bear now, though. It just makes me sick.

I was doing yard work and listening to the game, trying not to cut my throat with a spade when it was 9-1. Decided I needed to go to the Farm and Barn, loaded the dog up in the car and headed for the store. Heard the Fukkake and Lassie homers and Ron and Tony Esposito trying to remember all the times they got drunk in the ’60s and screwed each others wives. Came out of the store in time to hear Hank go yard, before we even got home it was 10-9. I almost didn’t get out of the car for fear I would jinx them. But shit, I had to SEE it.

We’re a year removed from Carlos beating up Barrett, right? You know what the Cubs record is in the last 162? 96-66.

Holy crap.

Re: #54–pretty sure that was a “mock” ledge jumper.

Let’s not forget Johnny Liebs–the wind was howling out and, while he gave up a couple runs, kept them in the game.

Kinda cool to win a game that started with Ramirez on the bench and had Lee and Soto joining him by the 5th inning. Blanco replaced Lee and Hoffpauer replaced Soto, and went a combined 4-5 with 3 runs scored.

¡Viva Hank White!

Wow. Anyone got a tape of this game? I got on a plane and watched the score go to 4-0,then 8-0 then time to turn off the phone. Didn’t check the score until I got to the hotel checkin line when it was 10-9 and I ‘watched’ woody in the 9th

The hotel is the Adams Mark- St Louis. This win even makes St Louis bearable.

Had to abandon the cast for my commute home with Pat and Ron after following Mike D’s link to memory lane. Liking the posts from previously silent fans of Cubs Live!

Hell of a call and terrific play-by-play, Mike D.
