  1. On to the 12th. In the top of the 11th, Wood struck out the side. In the bottom of the inning, the Cubs got two on but didn't score. Edmonds was ejected; getting a quick thumb after questioning a called strike two.
  2. Theriot fans too. (These strikeouts don't fire up the crowd as much.) Kerry Wood in to pitch the 11th.
  3. He does the next best thing: Called out on strikes.
  4. I want a Soriano home run here.
  5. Brewers go quietly in the 10th. Marmol energizes the crowd by striking out the last two batters. Johnson, Soriano, Theriot due up in the bottom of the inning for the Cubs.
  6. Centerfield wrote: (SLAPS BEN GRIMM HIGH FIVE!!!!) I GUESS EVERYONE ELSE HAS JOBS OR SOMETHING!!!! Yeah! What losers! Are you watching too, Centerfield? Or following on the Internet?
  7. Fukudome grounds out to end the inning. I had to switch from the Brewers broadcast to the Cubs broadcast because Milwaukee lost its sound. The Cubs announcers are chuckling with glee.
  8. Somebody sent a nice fruit basket or something to Giovanny Soto.
  9. Holy crap! I got goosebumps!
  10. SOTO TIES IT WITH A THREE-RUN HOMER!
  11. He does! (Sort of.) He singles into the gap and the tying run is at the plate.
  12. With two out and nobody on, the Cubs get a baserunner on an error and a run-scoring single. (6-3) Tying run on deck. DeRosa batting. Can the goat become a hero?
  13. Brewers tacking on in the 9th. It's now 6-2, with one out. (A runner thrown out at the plate.)
  14. Triple A is, in many ways, not a terribly interesting level. If I were in Brooklyn I'd be coveting the AA franchise in Binghamton instead of the AAA franchise in Buffalo. (Not that that's necessarily any more likely to happen.)
  15. And Mota gets through the eighth. (He issued a two-out walk, but then struck out Soriano.) This is the first game I've watched all year, for more than a few minutes, anyway, that didn't involve the Mets.
  16. I wish he had! Mota in for the Brewers. There's hope!
  17. Is the Loser's Lounge still open? I'll phone for some shrimp.
  18. He's been AWOL since that woman from "topdot" started giving those phony news reports.
  19. Eric Gagne in for the Brewers, and even HE'S getting guys out. Cubs go 1-2-3 in the 7th, still 5-2. My hopes for a perfect day (wins for the Mets, Cubs, Braves) are starting to fade.
  20. I just got the e-mail telling me I wasn't selected for NLDS tickets.
  21. The new pitcher, Wells, issues a bases-loaded walk to Hardy before mercifully getting the final out. Brewers 5, Cubs 2. Four runs score. I think 3 of them will be earned (because you can't assume the double play) but none of them would have scored if not for the error.
  22. Braun continues the hit parade and Milwaukee now leads 4-2. An IBB to Fielder loads the bases again. I'm not having warm feelings for this Cubs pitcher Samardzija. I hope the Mets pound the shit out of him next week at Shea!
  23. And Ray Durham singles to put the Brewers on top 3-2. Grrr...
  24. And the Brewers take advantage of the error. Mike Cameron singles home the tying run with two out. 2-2, Milwaukee still batting in the top of the 6th. More bad news: Heilman and Feliciano warming up in the Cubs bullpen!
  25. Well, he knows more about Castillo's condition than we do. Hopefully Santana goes 9 tonight with a comfy lead.
