Can we just make Wood pitch on short rest instead?

I'd even take Kerry Wood unretiring and giving it a go.

Should be a pitchers duel.

6-0 after the 1st inning, 7-2 final.

My mind is going blank at the moment, but I recall someone on our team and Jurrjens having an incident a few years ago. Was it Theriot? I honestly don't remember.

We're in the midst of our best stretch of the year. I'm going to be positive and predict another win.

bcl412 · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:08 pm

Rizzo double.

haubrich91 · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:09 pm

Anthony Rizzo.

C.C. · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:09 pm

Rizzo! (no words).

CubmanPi · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:10 pm

Stuck listening to Chip. He explained what happened in the Castro play last night, but he had to preface it by saying that Castro made a real head-scratcher (RIZZO!!) and emphasizing his reputation for being stupid in the field.

C.C. · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:10 pm

I think he might be figuring out the MLB.

Fred Hornkohl · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:10 pm

CUBS have not scored a 1st inning run in their last 14 games.

Go CUBS !!

Bob also refused to exonerate Castro.

He and Rizzo can spin it however they want but even if he was waiting for Rizzo to get to the bag there was no reason to not at least take a couple steps toward first and get some momentum going for the throw. To handle it the way he did was not a smart defensive play.

Fred Hornkohl · **Posted:** Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:22 pm

CUBS are 20-13 (.606) when they score first in the game.... 10-36 (.217) when they don't
CUBS are 28-31 (.475) when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 2-18 (.100) when they do

Go CUBS !!

CUBS are 14-27 (.341) when the opponent steals a base.... 16-22 (.421) when they don't
