Lilly said he had not intended to injure Molina, who left the game three innings after taking a knee to the left thigh on a tag play at the plate.
“First of all, I hope he’s not hurt,” Lilly said. “It’s not something I was trying to do and it’s almost more dangerous if I slide and my only other option is to stand there and let him tag me. At that point in the game, it’s useful.
“I don’t know if I’m going to go eight innings and not give up another run so I feel like we have to do what we have to do to score more runs.”
Molina left the game after the thigh tightened on him and expects to miss a couple of games. He had not been expecting a collision, given the pitcher was running. Today Ted might have to pinch run and not intend to injure Fat Albert. Surprise! The Jockey told me that the Genius is shocked and appalled at Ted's despicable actions. Piniella said Lilly wasn't supposed to run on the grounder by Derrek Lee, but he added it was a clean play. St. Louis manager Tony La Russa said the Cubs "play the game hard," adding "it goes both ways."
But when asked about Lilly's performance, La Russa hedged.
"I'll let the other team talk about him," he snapped. "I have no comment about him."
Whether there will be any repercussions Thursday remains to be seen. La Russa is just a miserable piece of shit. I think we should launch a preemptive strike. See if we can thread a baseball through the hole on PLUJOLS' earflap. Or Ludwick's...

Oh no doubt about it. Aside from the Pirates fan (5 world titles), I can see the Rangers and Mariners fans being mad... and hell if I was a Pirates fan i'd probably just off myself. But I mean, people act just because the Cubs are popular that it means something.. I'd trade all the Al Yellons' in the world to see the Cubs win a world series in my lifetime.
From my perspective, I've only been following baseball for the past 18 years or so. In that time, the Cubs and Mariners have had about equal amounts of success. The Rangers and Pirates have been even worse. The other 82 years of futility don't factor in to my perception of the Cubs' success. It's also why I don't appreciate Apex's hatred of my dad. Whose your daddy? Jimmy Carter?

Len just said Ted broke up a dog fight by putting his hand inside a pitbulls mouth to pry its' jaws apart...

Ted Lilly: All That Is Man.
I heard he tested a bear trap the same way.

In completley unrelated news that none of you are sure to care about, I post frequently on another board. No, not as bad as BCB or the four letter site, but it's pretty damn bad. Case in point, today in a thread by a Brewers fan bitching about "this unfamiliar pain" of not being good, I was called annoying by a Mariners, Rangers and Pirates fan for simply telling the OP to shut the fuck up and "try being a cubs fan".
I guess the cubs are the blueprint for running a succesfull franchise. Now if you'll excuse me Im off to enjoy all these world series titles we have!
Well, the Mariners, Rangers, and Pirates are all pretty crappy.
