It was highlight worthy. Nice dive to his right. Baserunner didn’t even hesitate, thought it was through. Nice play. Unfortunately, AG let two more baserunners on anyway. Too late to bring up Rich Hill instead? Like they should have anyway?
#29
on April 26, 2006 at 12:33 pm
It was a kickass diving stab to Cedeno’s left. He laid out completely and caught it a few inches above the ground.

That’s okay, Jock. I told all the WGN listeners that you really had no choice but to dive at that ball. Because, after all, when does a ballplayer EVER have a choice on diving for a ball, missing, and turning a routine single in to a triple?

Even for Dusty, that was inexplicable. If you are going to bat a pitcher there, why not go with Maddux or Zambrano, who have done things with the bat in the past?
That whole thing was a mess.
Dusty Baker

Hey, dude, it’s so early in the game. I need my real pinch hitters for later. No time like the future to try and get ahead in a tie ballgame!
Andy
on April 26, 2006 at 2:08 pm
Why carrying 12 pitchers will never bite you in the ass.
Dusty letting Guzman hit in the fifth, then not letting him pitch in the sixth because with Barrett out and Mabry serving as the “emergency catcher” the only guys on the bench are Neifi, Freddy and Restovich. Woof. Might as well hit Maddux and Zambrano.
Andy

If a RH pitcher picks a guy off first, he has to have balked. It’s impossible for a RH pitcher to legitimately pick a guy off of first.
We’re also fucktards.
Jacques Jones
on April 26, 2006 at 2:52 pm
During that balk, I was just thinking that my fate isn’t all that dissimilar to Todd Hundley’s. Meaning, I’ll eventually get traded to Los Angeles for their washed up Second and Firstbasemen.
Big Spot Scott
on April 26, 2006 at 2:54 pm
I’m thinking of cool and tricky ways to piss away a tie game in the eigth inning. The leadoff walk, that’s nothing new for Cubs fans. They remember Farnsworth well enough. The balk, that was sweet. The wild pitch! Brilliant. Runner at third with no outs. K. Whoops. That sucked. Hey Hank, how about a passed ball! No? Shit. Let’s see, what can I do?
Double Switch Dusty
on April 26, 2006 at 2:59 pm
I couldn’t use a pinch hitter earlier for Guzman because I had to make my obligatory useless double switch. Unless Howry goes 3, or something.
Scott Williamson’s day: 20 pitches, 14 balls, 3 walks, balk, wild pitch, and forced a double switch that got Jacqueshit Jones out of the game.
If you get Jones out of the game, you did well in my book.

Froemming and Laz Diaz are the two umpires I hate seeing when the Cubs are playing… It’s like you have to score an extra run or two just to win a close game when those two are umpiring…
At least with Angel Hernandez you get a guy that you know is consistent in being absolutely horrible and is also consistent in showing up players and managers.

…show the 2003 phantom World Series shirt, and Florida scores again.
Time to slap a new pitcher into shape.
I broke my finger and am out 3-4 weeks
I think it’s Susan Olsen pitching today.
Word is Robert Reed was catching.
So. Why should we boo Jock today? Suggestions and/or predictions?
I’ll go with “because he’s a thin-skinned pussy.”
What you talkin about #2
If Susan is pitching, I’m not catching.
Seriously, #2, where’d you hear that?
Barrett had x-rays on his finger today. They came back negative and he’s listed as day to day.
I’m into strap ons, Daddy.
If Mike Lookinland was pitching, it’d be another matter. Or the guy who played Sam the Butcher. Whatzhisname? Allan Melvin? Yum!
Lucky
Ron Ce
DBF
Pancakes
Orange Guy
Jerry the Lesser
JJP
Hank White
Big Z’s Little Kid
does that make me Little Z?
you can be Carl’s Jr.
We’ll call you LC for Lower Case.
Robert Reed? No, thanks. But Jim Edmonds? Woof woof!
I think that when Angel Pagan comes back, we should dub him “Not Necessarily the Guz”
You know how Tiger the dog just disappeared? I’m not sayin’, I’m just sayin’.
Why did Marsha have such nice boobs yet I got the topless work?
Marsha! Marsha! Marsha!
They call me “Seraph” and Guzman “Cherub”.
I ain’t removing my toothpick for no anthem, dude.
Brave!
I was the only one on the show who had a halfway-decent rack. Where was *my* phone call from Hef?
Hi guys
It was pretty cold last night. I couldn’t even feel my legs.
Well, there goes the no-hitter.
Hey Guz, try throwing at the glove, not the dirt.
Ronny, I love you man!
Crap…….sometimes I hate listening to games through the Internet. That play by Cedeno better be a highlight on the Cubs site later.
that double play… how’d it look? Please embellish.
How good was that catch?
Did I just dive at a ball 20 feet from me?!
It’s the fans fault I couldn’t catch that ball
It’s my sister Ashley Olsen pitching today, pervs.
Guzman is already a better, smarter, better looking and hung lower than Carlos Zambrano.
OK, so the ball landed five feet away from me, but didn’t my headfirst dive look great?
Okay, maybe it IS a good thing I’m just listening to this game. Hit in the helmet with a CURVE ball?
It was highlight worthy. Nice dive to his right. Baserunner didn’t even hesitate, thought it was through. Nice play. Unfortunately, AG let two more baserunners on anyway. Too late to bring up Rich Hill instead? Like they should have anyway?
It was a kickass diving stab to Cedeno’s left. He laid out completely and caught it a few inches above the ground.
check.
Arm trouble…
check.
Electric stuff…
check.
Trouble locating…
check.
Guzman’s a keeper.
That’s okay, Jock. I told all the WGN listeners that you really had no choice but to dive at that ball. Because, after all, when does a ballplayer EVER have a choice on diving for a ball, missing, and turning a routine single in to a triple?
AG saved by me. You’re welcome.
Had ’em all the way.
I sure throw hard though, don’t I? Yikes.
Hey, dudes.
Hey, that’s two fewer runs than I gave up in the first on Monday.
Hey, you can’t boo me! I’m batting seventh! You can’t boo the seventh place hitter!
Even if he’s getting paid $5 million this year.
Don’t worry, guys. I’ll be out of this game by the 4th inning. 24-pitch first inning just like Kerry taught me in Iowa.
So Angel is throwing hard? Sounds like this is gonna be a rollercoaster.
S’up, homies. I’m available for some dude on dude.
Doesn’t seem to be working…
Atleast in Charleston IL
I fit the suit!
Juan Pierre rarely does me at all. Oh, wait.
Doesn’t seem to be working…
Atleast in Charleston IL
I’m a virgin.
We suggest that you climb the telephone pole and inform the switchboard operator, Mr. Douglas.
Has the game started yet?
I guess I’m dead again, huh?
Holy crap. Angel has some serious shit. Half of it is unhittable, the other half nowhere near the catcher.
Sup homies? We’re available for some…
Did I just hear this bug I got is terminal?
Shouldn’t have eaten that deer meat…
Anybody got some meth?
Pancake this, female doges!
Boo YEAH cabrones!
I hit homerun for my kid too if Dusty play me in right.
Woody took all the meth to Boston with him.
(exagerrated rolled “R”) ami (exaggerated rolled “r”) ez!!!!!!
Bitches!
BEECHES
Huh?
Lets ALL swing for the fences!
Give me your organs!
What the hell am I doing here?
On one hand, I’m glad that Dusty’s not worried about hurting anybody’s feeling this year by moving them down in the order, but on the other hand, how the hell could we give a 3 year contract to a RF who’s a 7th place hitter (and he’d be hitting 8th if Barrett were in the lineup)?
Hey Todd Helton, terminal doesn’t always mean fatal.
ter·mi·nal (tûrm-nl)
3 Of, at, relating to, or being the end of a section or series; final.
Yeah, in other words, it’s the end of your small intestine that’s the problem.
I am here to watch my ‘bro hank?
Thank you for the English lesson…
Way to ruin everything
We get it Jesse, donate your organs. Enough!!!
But what if we don’t want to donate our organs? We love playing with ours!
Hi, mom!
Why is no one booing Juan Pierre when he’s also slumping? It’s cuz he’s black, ain’t it? Oh wait…
Mur-Ton. Arameese. Guz-MAN. I’m starting to seriously irritate.
I game Big Z’s youngen his first Aardsma.
I gave Big Z’s youngen his first Aardsma.
Uh oh.
Thus endeth the shutout.
Hello ball
No, David, I think Josh Willingham did that…
Well, suppose I should get moving…
Those Aardsma jokes are so NOT funny.
Guzman did the smart thing and put Cabrera on before giving up that homer. Don’t want to let Cabrera beat you. That’s what makes him smarter than Zambrano. I ram guys. Oh, how humiliating.
Let’s see, that 0-2 pitch over the heart of the plate didn’t get hit hard enough. Let’s try that again, shall we? There we go.
I’m going to screw up in the field just to piss off all you haters. I’ll give you mofos something to boo!
Hey, every Cubs fan would like a nice vintage Yankees jersey … right?
Three runs will not win this game.
I am about as good as guzman’s minor leauge era
Twins fans are passionate. They stick with you through thick and thin. Theirs is the kind of loyalty and decency that makes a man pause for a moment and reflect upon how much he misses them before he tries to throw out a runner at the plate.
Gamecast appears to be broken, it says that Ronny Cedeno walked.
Run, run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me. I’m the gin—umm, the elusive new ballpark.
Squeeeeeeeze?
You’re welcome, Jerry.
Where’s my Love!
Why be good when you can be lucky?
Now watch me get picked off, guys.
Help, please?
Don’t see that very often.
Jerry hits a grounder to second. Toss to the SS for out #2 and then Hanley promptly threw the ball in to the dugout. Hairston to second, Cedeno and Ramirez score. Tie ballgame.
In fact I haven’t seen it yet. Please, some sort of description about wtf just happened. Feel free to embellish.
Geez……..Hairston is freaking nuts. Stealing third with 2 outs?! Even Ron Santo is reaming him right now.
Is it just me, or is there a lot more of Miguel Cabrera this year. Not in a bulked-up-on-steroids way, but in a mmm-these-doughnuts-is-tasty sort of way?
Thank you.
What is wrong with Harriston? My my my. Geez!
You didn’t watch many games last year, huh?
they were saying last night that when he got to The Show he weighed about 210. now he’s a svelt 250 or so.
Yeah, Cabrera’s lookin’ a bit doughy this year.
How about a nice, zippy 1-2-3 inning here.
I am still in? Dusty is determined to get me the loss, or injured.
Yeah, stealing 3rd with 2 out? Was it a missed hit & run? You need to steal 3rd with 2 out like Barroid needs a bigger head.
Mang, I can’t wait to give those runs back!
Fork, to be fair, I doubt that Little Jerry even knew how many outs there were.
Did you know, Bob managed the 2001 World Champion Arizona Diamondbacks?
Wait, what was that?
Good defense? From Aramis Ramirez, Jerry Hairston, AND Todd Walker? On the SAME PLAY?!?!?
By the way, I noticed that Caberera singled to 2nd, was that a tough play for Little Jerry, or did he botch it?
I carry dees teem on muy back, mang. Ow, I hurt muy ass.
Really, I think the Cubs should try and squeeze another inning out of the Guz. Why not? It’s not like he’s lucky to have given up three and not thirty runs so far or anything.
Hank faking the bunt on 3-0.
I may likes me donuts, but I’d fill out a Cubs uni really nice.
Another at-bat for Guzman, meaning he’s going to start the sixth…
Is DFB determined to kill his career?
Then Dusty gives Guzman a handshake and half-hug as he comes down the dugout stairs? WTF is going on?
That’s a good one, Dusty. Yeah, sure I’ve got another 2 innings in me. I’ll just go grab a bat! HA!……..Wait, you’re fucking serious?
Who’s thrown more pitches so far? Angel, or Bobo Super Novoa in the bullpen? Everytime I look up Bobo’s throwing. It’s like a Mark Prior simulated gameathon out there today.
Wish I could see the game. Poor Andy, having to watch television while I babysit the computer monitor. Don’t you have a job, fella?
Even for Dusty, that was inexplicable. If you are going to bat a pitcher there, why not go with Maddux or Zambrano, who have done things with the bat in the past?
That whole thing was a mess.
Hey, dude, it’s so early in the game. I need my real pinch hitters for later. No time like the future to try and get ahead in a tie ballgame!
Why carrying 12 pitchers will never bite you in the ass.
Dusty letting Guzman hit in the fifth, then not letting him pitch in the sixth because with Barrett out and Mabry serving as the “emergency catcher” the only guys on the bench are Neifi, Freddy and Restovich. Woof. Might as well hit Maddux and Zambrano.
Well, we just got tomorrow’s reason to boo Jock Jones.
The ball falls in right field, almost hits me and Bob can’t figure out if it was my ball or Juan’s.
Jock deserves to be booed for screwing that up. It looked like Pierre had it…
With the catcher on 3rd? WTF?
Merde!
Who am I? If I get a hit here, the Cubs should just cancel the rest of the season.
Novoa looked nasty that inning.
As did Itch’s defense.
I love me some Big Spot Bob. And salad. I love Bobo and salad.
#139, I am saved!
Hi guys.
Judging from his mlb.com picture, it would appear that Ricky Nolasco has rarely ever missed one of me.
One hit? That’s all we got? One God damn hit?
Too heets, senor Doyle. Dos!
You’ll call him Big Spot Bob until he balks in a run from third. Again.
He’d still be Big Spot Bob, BC, due to the enormous brown spot on the back of his trousers. He has his Big Spots and he has his Big Spots. And I except them all the same. That’s what love means.
And by the way, BC. What other base could you balk in a run from?
Did somebody mention one-hitter?
Ummmmm… He could have two balks in a row and balk in someone from second?
Yeah.
That’s it…
Back to the game: Novoa gets another strikeout to start the 7th.
I suck.
Big.
Spot.
We suck
Bob.
You just couldn’t wait 155, could ya?
If that big ape is BSB, then what the hell am I?
Overpaid.
Sorry Apex
Man, I bet Nolasco never had a good Aardsma-ing.
Yeah, 159, I’ve just been awful this year. Maybe you’d like me to swap places with Mike Remlinger?
You can never have too many big spot Bobs in the bullpen, dudes. And don’t forget the toothpicks.
Did that last K get me more boos? You know I don’t like boos.
Hell of a game I’m calling today. Right homies?
How bout you can be Big Spot Bobby? Si?
Just because you haven’t heard of guys like Matt Cepicky and Scott Olsen doesn’t give you the right to be a glib asshole.
I called a heck of a game yesterday.
oh wait… i forgot.
when hank catches a well pitched game, it’s all him. when i catch a well pitched game, i have nothing to do with it.
167, you’re glib.
Fuck you, Cubs! I still hate your fucking guts!
If a RH pitcher picks a guy off first, he has to have balked. It’s impossible for a RH pitcher to legitimately pick a guy off of first.
We’re also fucktards.
During that balk, I was just thinking that my fate isn’t all that dissimilar to Todd Hundley’s. Meaning, I’ll eventually get traded to Los Angeles for their washed up Second and Firstbasemen.
I’m thinking of cool and tricky ways to piss away a tie game in the eigth inning. The leadoff walk, that’s nothing new for Cubs fans. They remember Farnsworth well enough. The balk, that was sweet. The wild pitch! Brilliant. Runner at third with no outs. K. Whoops. That sucked. Hey Hank, how about a passed ball! No? Shit. Let’s see, what can I do?
I couldn’t use a pinch hitter earlier for Guzman because I had to make my obligatory useless double switch. Unless Howry goes 3, or something.
Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!
Scott Williamson’s day: 20 pitches, 14 balls, 3 walks, balk, wild pitch, and forced a double switch that got Jacqueshit Jones out of the game.
If you get Jones out of the game, you did well in my book.
Are we who you are thinking of, #172?
Man, that was awesome! Here ya go Bobby. Let’s see who’s got the Big Spot now.
Nice fucking double switch Dusty.

We’re big fans of yours, Chuck.
No, you can’t say that, Chuck. Because the bullpen HAS been fucking good.
You’re a dope.
Nice to rip the bullpen for one bad game.
I’m funny, dammit!
Scott Eyre has given up one of me all season. What a fat ass loser.
I like A-Ram’s ass much more than his head.
Jim:
I just said that to boost my bona-fides as a racist.
‘Scuse me. David Duke is here for an appointment.
Can i show my appreciation for you Cubs fans with a big blown save?
Do I swing a 44 ounce bat?
I look like a taller Gary Gaetti.
someone broke my Cubbie consecutive saves streak?
I liked this game a lot better before they took Novoa out of it. It totally sucks ever since.
That Juan Pierre is a heckuva ballplayer.
Thanks for my first mlb win, Cubbies. Thank god I’m not pitching for Larry Rothschild. I’d be bad, injured and never improving.
I am such a catalyst.
When can we officially start calling Murton Matt the Bat? I think he’s earning it.
trying to figure out what happened in this game from reading the “game cast” is a bizzare experience…
