Cubs vs. Pirates 5/27/09

[Coach]

Z did not initiate the contact but all of his other antics will lead to a nice suspension.
Way to look out for the team, ace!

Yelled in the umps face, threw the ball across the field, chucked his glove at the dugout, beat the shit out of the Gatorade machine with a bat.... there was also a bump with the umpire, but the umpire clearly caused it.

Hopefully just 1, but you never know. The way we've been pissing off umpires, the league may try to make an example of us.

We should bring Alou back so we can really put the umps against us.

[Fella]

My guess would be 5 or 6 games, so smart thing to do is make a start, drop the appeal and start again 5 or 6 games later

[BT]

wait, did Lou just pinch hit Hoffpaur against a lefty, with Fox on the bench?

[sleepyhead]

And we just burned Guzman for 1 batter.

Not a good couple innings.

[Butcher]

We're going to drop two out of three to the Pirates at home. That's how much we suck.

Lou's in quite a zone lately, isn't he?

Lou has been completely lost since the playoffs.

[Butcher]

Piss.

I guess the catastrophe that was last year's playoff appearance did a number on the future HOF manager.

Seriously, you guys bitch and moan about all the supposedly dumb shit Lou does, when in almost all cases it's the players not performing. But not pinch hitting Fox there is just plain fucking stupid. Now we have one less lefty on the bench when the inevitable right handed reliever comes in, and Fox is just sitting there masturbating on the bench.

[rok]

If we blow this game and get annihilated by the Dodgers, I'm gonna be about ready to write this team off. I've been trying my best to be patient, but this is getting ridiculous.

And Z never should have been out there to start the inning. It all started with that dumb decision. Z should have left the game with his head high.
