Nasty weather. Let's hope one of the old guys (Tejada/DeRosa) don't get hurt.

Then again...

I can't find a link ANYWHERE so I can only comment via the box score....I see Sanchez scored a run...how about THAT?

 

[ColinCoby]

Couple of hard-hit balls against Vogelsong. This guy has so much riding on every start. He can't afford to get lit up, even with the imperfect playing conditions.

Let's hope he can get a DP here.

It's the Fox Sat. game. You don't get it out there?

 

[ColinCoby]

All those balls to Pena were not close. I'm worried.

 

[ColinCoby]

Absolutely terrible call at second base. Should have been a DP to end the inning.

Umpjacked at 2B. Hope it doesn't hurt....

Red Sox Vs. Yankees here :laser:....I guess that's as close to a fucking shoot me smiley as possible

 

[ColinCoby]

This is going to be a loooooong game. A marathon.

 

[msgkings322]

Vogs with some mental toughness to overcome the umpjack. But still forced him to throw about 8 more pitches.

2-3 pitches that should've been strikes...that's a lot for 1 inning

Given the conditions, it wouldn't be the worst thing for the ump to expand his regular zone a bit.

True...I feel so underprivileged....can you describe the conditions to me please?

Very windy. There was a ball hit to right field that Huff, Sanchez, and Ross chased after, and it ended up some 15 rows into the stands. Constant mist.

The announcer said these conditions are tougher on the hitter than the pitcher. I'm not so sure about that. Must be tough to keep any consistent release point and balance.

Haha! It just happened again. Foul ball off Vogelsong's bat, three players chase it, and it ends up 20 rows into the stands.

 

[SFGRTB]

So, think that weather is affecting the game yet?

Haha. This is going to be an ugly game. I just hope the Cubbies play a little uglier than the Giants. So far, so good.

I wonder if the weather is supposed to clear up at some point. Any chance they call this thing after 5 innings?

BTW: 39 degrees!

I am getting the Doggies and Snakes here

I swear, the Giants may be the ultimate reason I end up moving back to the bay...

 

[ColinCoby]

Who are these announcers? Is it me, or do they have a bit of a pro-Cubbie agenda?


5 Ks for Vogelsong.

Mother Nature's being a bitch right now, everywhere.
