This Patterson is too similar to the former Patterson. Murton should have gotten the callup. Any playing time Cedeno loses to Patterson is a crime, especially considering any playing time he loses to Fontenot is a crime.

Since its throwback day, and the internets weren’t invented in the 40’s, should we not comment? Maybe MLB and WGN can “throwback” freaking gas prices whilst they’re at it. Black and white no graphics TV. Somebody tell Arne Harris that I spend $3500 on an HDTV and $150 a month on Verizon FIOS TV….I’d like my hi-def pleeeeease.

Here was my take on Al’s broken knuckle.
“This team is resilient and will survive this loss. Soriano is maddening at times, with his occasional dropped fly balls and wind-whipping whiffs, but there is no doubt he can carry a team for weeks at a time, which he did during the mid-May homestand and last September.”
How many weeks was that mid-May homestand? Six?
Andy

We’re only going to use two camera angles so you can see how much watching a game on TV back then sucked. Only, nobody knew it at the time.

“Bob Rosenberg only used two typewriters. The first was destroyed by a foul ball.”

Carlos just pissed off somebody in the mound ball pool. The ump rolled it towards the mound, Carlos kicked it and stopped it, then kicked it onto the mound…and over it.
So far…so close…so far. Pass the cup.

Can’t see the broadcast, what exactly are the two camera angles?
It’d be great if a borderline double happened deep in the corner, forcing them to use a different camera.
Or make you wait a few innings for the replay

If the Cubs lose 2-0 on a homer that nobody with a TV could see because WGN refused to zoom in on it, we’re going to burn Wrigley down.

So this is what first base looks like at Wrigley. Corey could never tell me.

First base? Eric, I can show you third base. Just let me get this truss off.

Come on, Bobby, put Ohman in.

Lassie

Just missed it.
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 3:13 pm
If Lou goes with Micah, Bobby will bring in Ohman.
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Holy crap. Lou stayed with Carlos, and Bobby’s changing pitchers.
I guess when you’re hitting .370 you get some respect.
Z
on June 12, 2008 at 3:15 pm
I dare him to throw me a strike.
Thank God

Hudson is gone. Is ohman pitching?
Well, that was
on June 12, 2008 at 3:16 pm
Shitty
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 3:17 pm
I…I…I don’t get that.
When Bobby brought the righty in, he was begging for Lou to go to Hoffpauir.
Instead, Carlos pops out.
Oh, well, two more cracks at the Braves with somebody other than Hudson on the mound. Those aren’t bad odds.
I get it
on June 12, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Zambrano wants to go out another inning. If this goes extras, or even if it doesn’t, lou wants to save his bullpen (Read marmol)?
Slaky

Lou has taken the day off.
Lou

Andy

I would think you go with the guy paid to hit there instead of the guy paid to pitch. But that’s just me.
Holy shit, now Carlos is out anyway. What the fuck?
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 3:23 pm
Guh.
That worked out well
on June 12, 2008 at 3:23 pm
didn’t it Lou?
Marmol
on June 12, 2008 at 3:23 pm
Fuck it. I’ll just strike out the next three.
Remember what I said about not using Marmol?
on June 12, 2008 at 3:24 pm
Yeah. he is coming in now.
Marmol
on June 12, 2008 at 3:24 pm
Well sure, don’t let me pitch to Greg Norton. Let Eyre do it.
Slaky
on June 12, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Lou really must have had one to many glasses of cab last night. This is just a bizarre game.
Steve Ire
on June 12, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Even I can strike out Greg Norton.
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 3:26 pm
We know what’s going to happen. Eyre will strike out Norton and Blanco then give up a grand slam with two outs.
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 3:26 pm
Pinch hitters were illegal in 1948. Lou can’t use one.
Slaky

Andy

Nah, now it’s the Marmot. The only way the Braves get a run now is if Carlos throws one through Infante’s chest.

Marmot
on June 12, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Either I can’t control my fastball, or it’s designed to set up my slider by scaring the bejeezus out of hitters. And I’ll never te-ell . . .

Lou

Don’t worry guys, I’m ignoring the percentages here. Johnson and McCann kill lefties.

I’m the clutch-iest .212 hitter in the show! And when I get a clutch, that’s when I hurt you. I prefer to start from the camel’s clutch . . . huh? What? Oh, I’ll run the bases now.
I hit home runs because I really don’t want to hustle.

Lassie did a homer hop and threw his arms up and that ball barely caught the basket. He’d have probably been out 8-6-3 at first if it hadn’t clipped the basket.

I look a lot like Uncle Fester.
Cub Fan in PA
on June 12, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Okay, I’m confused. They bring in Ohman to face Don’t Hassle the Hoff Power. There are 2 outs, and odds are you’re going to extras.
If Hoffpauir gets on somehow, then EPatt comes up to face the lefty (which will happen if Cedeno gets on…meaning odds of scoring, not good anyways, contingent on the 9 hitter getting on), and you double-switch Hoffpauir for E-Patt. Easy.
All Lou did is waste 2 bench players for what is a minimal expected return. I don’t get it.
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 4:16 pm
The ball wants to fly. Ruben F’ing Gotay hit a pitch over his head that took Fukky to the track.
Get Greg White out, and one of the three in the ninth just needs to hit a flyball somewhere.
Andy
on June 12, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Ninth. Tenth. I’m drunk.
Lou

Shouldn’t he have just drilled Chipper there? You know, and save his bullets.

Andy

Are they bringing in another lefty? How many of those fuckers do they have? Gordon W. must love their bullpen.
Edmonds can’t even make contact against a lefty. Better just have him throw his body in front of a pitch. He’s used to having hard ones bounce off his backside.
Animal Shelter

Reed Johnson stole my game-winning technique.
sjklhdasa9s8y
on June 12, 2008 at 5:36 pm
Reed Johnson is such a gamer. Eric Patterson would never have gotten hit in the foot with the first pitch. Let’s have this guy lead off!
Eric Patterson and Micah Hoffpauir up, Kevin Hart to Iowa, Alfonso to the DL.
We just can’t get enough Pattersons can we? Is this is a throwback to 1948 today or 2005?
My time with this team is over.
My bags are packed…when’s the flight to Chicago?
This Patterson is too similar to the former Patterson. Murton should have gotten the callup. Any playing time Cedeno loses to Patterson is a crime, especially considering any playing time he loses to Fontenot is a crime.
Since its throwback day, and the internets weren’t invented in the 40’s, should we not comment? Maybe MLB and WGN can “throwback” freaking gas prices whilst they’re at it. Black and white no graphics TV. Somebody tell Arne Harris that I spend $3500 on an HDTV and $150 a month on Verizon FIOS TV….I’d like my hi-def pleeeeease.
Hey guys, does today’s game count?
If you want to tell Arne that, you’re going to need a Ouija board or a shovel.
I’m nearly as ghey as his AIDS quilt hat.
Hey Al! You wanna come over to my house for a few weeks and we can chill, hire some strippers and inject each other in the butt?
Bad, and obviously post 1948, so why bother?
Butt injections? Can I come too?
There was no health code in 1948! Today’s smokey links come with extra shit on them! Oh, and eat all the tomatoes you want.
Lassie, the last time you were around an injured calf it ended up with a distended anus. Stay away from mine.
Andy-I figured we wre in the 1940’s today, which would make Arne what? 55? Get us a shot of the ladies with the umbrellas in the bleachers Arne. They should put their telephone numbers on the umbrella, not their name.
Hey guys! Can I come over to Albert’s?
If it really is 1948 I want Pafko in left instead of baby Corey.
The Cubs uniforms are OK…a little boring.
The Braves uniforms are exactly the same as always except with a B on their hat.
Fri. AJ Burnett
Sat. Roy Halladay
Sun. Hitsch
Tues. Scott Shields.
Wed. Scott Kazmir

If high button shoes are all the rage, then I expect the fake to third throw to first play to work several times today.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!
What’s up, guys? I’m leading off and playing LF today! How’s my brother doing over in Cincy?
Hey, were in Hitsch will Will Smith!
I think you mean Jesse Litsch.
I’m chillin’ in Denver waiting for Jimbo to pull the trigger!
Why would a Cub be on the DL with a broken ring finger, they’re never going to use them anyway!
No coloreds on the field, no colors on your TV!
Am I catching today?
Sorry, Hank. You’re on the bench.
Ghey.
WTF????
we’re awesome
You just KNOW I will be doing a JO in my post tomorrow about the bell choir anthem.
I’m thinking ryan spilborghs
We’ve seen 1,000s of anthems, right? That was the worst ever.
Back in 1948, they didn’t have singers…thus the bells for this game?
Here was my take on Al’s broken knuckle.
“This team is resilient and will survive this loss. Soriano is maddening at times, with his occasional dropped fly balls and wind-whipping whiffs, but there is no doubt he can carry a team for weeks at a time, which he did during the mid-May homestand and last September.”
How many weeks was that mid-May homestand? Six?
The black and white is cool.
You know, if cool means completely fucking irritating.
“Ryan Theriot’s a throwback player!”
In 1948 he’d a been a giant.
Carlos and Tim Hudson…this game will be over by three.
We’re only going to use two camera angles so you can see how much watching a game on TV back then sucked. Only, nobody knew it at the time.
Is what the camera angles are.
Carlos should drill Chipper in the hands and we can have a good old fashioned donnybrook!
“Bob Rosenberg only used two typewriters. The first was destroyed by a foul ball.”
When the Cubs played the New York Knights and Roy Hobbs?
The Cubs still have us on, because we have advertising on us.
Nice touch.
Somebody should tell Scott Shields that he’s been traded to Tampa Bay and is now a starter.
Oh yeah, and DOOOM!
I broke the type-writer
Wow, I was hauling ass! Only nine seconds to first.
Two Wonderboy jokes at Desipio.
I AM NOT AN ALBINO!
What, no jokes about me?
Carlos just pissed off somebody in the mound ball pool. The ump rolled it towards the mound, Carlos kicked it and stopped it, then kicked it onto the mound…and over it.
So far…so close…so far. Pass the cup.
That movie’s so old, I was hot in it.
I’m back and I brought my plaque and my $100 check.
He’s number four? I guess they’re not going to retire it for me.
1948 was the last time anybody in my family got laid.
I’ve got a tent in my knickers talking about Theriot.
I hope Messmer forgets to turn off that microphone and drops a couple of f-bombs.
Did somebody say something about mounds of balls in a pool?
They are enhancing me.
1948 was the last time a Hartig male saw anything more than a woman’s naked ankle.
Douche-bags are hygienic products, I take that as a compliment. Thank you.
Can anyone recite me?
“Reduced prices on Pepsi here early in the game.”
As they show a guy selling FOUR DOLLAR Pepsi.
So they are reduced, they’re like half off.

I’ve got to go guys, I just heard that boys’ pants are half off at Sears.
We sounded like a fun concept. But we suck ass.
I’m glad I didn’t play hooky to watch black and white and two camera angles.
Good thing they told me the game started at 9 a.m.
I would say half-on, but I am no pessimist.
because , I haven’t seen a ball game in black and white for 25 years. Turn on the High Def cameras damnit.
#50…Gracie was the greatest moundball player…..evar. Many full cups were mine. Nobody understood the “game within the game” better. People at Dodger stadium thought we were nuts last weekend.
You remember we didn’t do this shit when I was there.
No beanie babies in 1948.
Gordon, if you’d like to write a column with 101 reasons why the throwback broadcast sucked, I’ll help you out.
We already did this. Remember that game against the Dodgers a few years back, where every inning was broadcast like a different year?
Yeah, that sucked too.
Now Bob is even bitching about the TV coverage.
I sat through the WGN 60 year retrospective….that was enough. Unless they dig up Ray Rayner, this crap can go away.
Ramirez, Soto, Fukudome
The Cubs tribute to nationalities not allowed to play in the big leagues in 1948!
One more biscuit for breakfast!
I can’t see the damn ball. DON’T make me turn on the radio. I am sure Ron Santo couldn’t speak in sentences then.
No replays?! How am I supposed to figure out what’s going on? This game is cutting into my fax-reading time!
Can’t see the broadcast, what exactly are the two camera angles?
It’d be great if a borderline double happened deep in the corner, forcing them to use a different camera.
Or make you wait a few innings for the replay
Is Ronald Reagan doing the radio broadcast too?
Why am I watching a TV that can’t show you the double play, fly ball, put out, fast ball, curve ball, split finger, or babes with big tatas in the stands.
I’m already bitching on air about the fact there are no replays.
Well, they must be reading this blog.
1948 cons: No instant replay.
1948 pros: I had legs.
Patterson is bunting here, right?
The color is back on now. You can be awful again.
Thank Christ…we’re back in a recession.
No, I’m grounding into a double play.
Thank god I am up…that could have been a dangerous spot for the braves!
Okay, that’s enough of me.
I’m just as shitty leading off as Korey.
It’s anti-gingerism….has to be
Chauncey?
“Put me in coach…I’m reaaaady to play…..taday!”
Marmol has smaller ears than me.
I’m still completely baffled at SLB being at the top of the lineup. Fucking terrible.
Did you notice on the camera shots with Jack Rosenberg that the uppper deck is empty.
I’m channeling my Inner Dusty today.
Because we want Detroit in the race, that’s why.
My fault fellas. I forgot to pack the bats for the road trip.
Do you have the cubs’ bats too?
Why in the hell would that be First Prize?
Because you get a dream date with meeeeeeee!
Didn’t I start my first game last time I got called up, and then disappear almost immediately?
I pronounced “Easter Seals” like I thought it had something to do with sea mammals.
Are you over 18? and can you send some pictures?
If the Cubs lose 2-0 on a homer that nobody with a TV could see because WGN refused to zoom in on it, we’re going to burn Wrigley down.
It’s too bad I’m hurt, I was planning on hitting three homers today.
Mark my words, the Detroit Tigers will win the AL Central. Fat Miggy is starting to hit and they get Zumaya and Rodney back next week. The Sox missed a chance to finish them off.
So this is what first base looks like at Wrigley. Corey could never tell me.
First base? Eric, I can show you third base. Just let me get this truss off.
Time to go yard.
Did he ever tell you about Gail Fischer’s third base?
Fuck. If I’d pulled that even a little it would have been gone.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOM
#110, on the bright side, that would mean no Len Kasper Brickhouse call occurred.
I am just like my brother! Just look at our minor-league statistics and the fifteen plate appearances I have ever had in the majors! It’s a slam dunk!11!1
Yup. Still alive!
listening to all the tributes to Cub executives who did nothing to win a World Series in all the years they drew a paycheck. 100 years of failure has a lot of fathers.l
That means it is time for some ******* runs
Will Ohman is warming up in the bullpen.
That looked a lot like Weekend at Bernies
Could you see where they stapled the hat to my head?
I’m going to go yard here. Get ready to shower me with appreciative ambivalence!
Come on, Bobby, put Ohman in.
Remember Lassie, it’s a flashback to the 1948 Cubs, not the 1919 White Sox.
Just missed it.
If Lou goes with Micah, Bobby will bring in Ohman.
Holy crap. Lou stayed with Carlos, and Bobby’s changing pitchers.
I guess when you’re hitting .370 you get some respect.
I dare him to throw me a strike.
Hudson is gone. Is ohman pitching?
Shitty
I…I…I don’t get that.
When Bobby brought the righty in, he was begging for Lou to go to Hoffpauir.
Instead, Carlos pops out.
Oh, well, two more cracks at the Braves with somebody other than Hudson on the mound. Those aren’t bad odds.
Zambrano wants to go out another inning. If this goes extras, or even if it doesn’t, lou wants to save his bullpen (Read marmol)?
Lou has taken the day off.
Is a dope
Time to end that scoreless streak…
I would think you go with the guy paid to hit there instead of the guy paid to pitch. But that’s just me.
Holy shit, now Carlos is out anyway. What the fuck?
Guh.
didn’t it Lou?
Fuck it. I’ll just strike out the next three.
Yeah. he is coming in now.
Well sure, don’t let me pitch to Greg Norton. Let Eyre do it.
Lou really must have had one to many glasses of cab last night. This is just a bizarre game.
Even I can strike out Greg Norton.
We know what’s going to happen. Eyre will strike out Norton and Blanco then give up a grand slam with two outs.
Pinch hitters were illegal in 1948. Lou can’t use one.
Andy, you’re right so far…
Get ready on Waveland!
Lou: Hey guys.
DeRosa: Why the fuck did you let Carlos hit?
D-Lee: Yeah!
Steve Ire: Got any chocolate?
My time is now. Ears and all.
Nah, now it’s the Marmot. The only way the Braves get a run now is if Carlos throws one through Infante’s chest.
I was a Cub for about five minutes this winter.
THROW A STRIKE MAN
How about three?
MARMOT! You have a GODCOCK.
Ask and ye shall receive.
I love toying with these guys, mang.
I need a bath again.
Either I can’t control my fastball, or it’s designed to set up my slider by scaring the bejeezus out of hitters. And I’ll never te-ell . . .
Nice pitching…
Marmot always inspires one of me, but no ghey stuff.
Look at my wheels!
3 pitches. Too hot to be out here long.
Man never quits.
Consider this tied…or better.
Nice hustle man. Your bat is still made of pussies.
A bigger jinx than Bob Brenly
I hate you man. I really do.
Bobby Cox without his hat!
Watch out…Ohman’s warming up.
For us cocksuckers at work, WTF is going on?
2 outs. Lee with a hustle double, Aram just walked. Fuku at the dish
2-2
Grounds out to Larry Wayne to end the inning
Fielder’s choice.
Fukudome grounds a fielders’ choice to third
Don’t worry guys! I’m going to find a way to get Eric Patterson the first three at bats of the ninth.
Why is Marmol still in? He’s gonna catch Tommy John’s.
Now
You just had to say it. Now Cotts is in. Kiss this game goodbye.
Marmol is not in anymore. Neal Cotts is coming in! Why are you groaning?
Don’t worry guys, I’m ignoring the percentages here. Johnson and McCann kill lefties.
See? A double for Johnson. You’re not going to like what McCann does next…
I meant Jones. I’m all kinds of drunk right now.
The Best * Sports Show Period.
Can someone show me where the strike zone is? Thanks.
I threw that last one off of the Gamecast screen.
Found it.
Fuck you assholes. I got out of it.
Geo, Edmonds and DeRosa…not the worst three the Cubs could send up there.
Had ’em all the way!
I hate the warning track!
come home!
Come home!
Yay! I mean, “I hate that guy!” Or is it OK…tell me, tell me!
Hey hey!
Feels all right.
I may molest collies but I’ve got both fucking RBIs bitches!
Goes Yard 2-2.
So obvious somebody else posted that the same time as me.
You all love me. YOU LOVE ME.
I’m the clutch-iest .212 hitter in the show! And when I get a clutch, that’s when I hurt you. I prefer to start from the camel’s clutch . . . huh? What? Oh, I’ll run the bases now.
I still hate you.
Hate that dude

Are they bringing in another lefty? How many of those fuckers do they have? Gordon W. must love their bullpen.
Edmonds can’t even make contact against a lefty. Better just have him throw his body in front of a pitch. He’s used to having hard ones bounce off his backside.
Jimmy if you get this run in, we’ll leave the door unlocked after we close. You know where we’re at.
I left out “again”
I got this.
Well somebody got hit, it just wasn’t Lassie.
Wins the game.
A bruise. A win. Another day at the office.
Flappity flap flap, bitches!
Look for the Hit By Pitch.
Looked so ghey jumping on Johnson there.
…is on the horizon.
Looks like we got a team, Charlie! Looks like we got a team!
Goddamn!!!!!!!
I beat Shelbyville that way.
Wow, I haven’t tried hitting the LAST batter in an inning. Crazy win, but I’ll take it.
suck it!
Is how last year’s team would have lost a game. Then again Ohman would have been the pitcher.
SWEEEEP!!
Reed Johnson stole my game-winning technique.
Reed Johnson is such a gamer. Eric Patterson would never have gotten hit in the foot with the first pitch. Let’s have this guy lead off!
WooHoo!! Hit For The Sweep!!
