lead off batter HBP.

Please don't let this be the bad Ortiz today

Bucs tie it and Ortiz hands Cubs 2 base runners. Nice catch by Suwinski as Suzuki bails out Ortiz by swinging on 3-0 pitch.

Suwinski with a stellar catch!

CRUZ!@@@@@@@@!!!!!!!! Finally that long legged SS thing comes into play!!!!

Defense saves Ortiz a$$

Bart walks, Williams can't bunt him over but ends up with an infield hit anyhow

And Cutch can't do anything but look silly, after having so many good AB's.

Can't we score these lead off walks like other teams do?

Reynolds. I have faith in Reynolds. He hit the gap his last AB last night, I thought it was a sign he was going on a tear. I like that sign. I believe in that sign.

first and second with Bart and Williams reaching, no outs, and Cutch and Reynolds can't do squat

If you ever have a Bart and a Williams reach base safely to start an inning and Cutch, Reynolds, and Cruz can't even move them up a base, we have basically told the opponent, "here, sorry, we didn't mean to do that, please take this game back". I'd fine each of them half a million dollars.

WTFF can't these guys do anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was in the car following the game such as anyone can do with Joe Block at the microphone and, when I learned Williams was starting, I about exploded. He’s sent down a couple of days ago, an indication he’s not good enough to be here, but then he’s put in the line-up. Whoever decided that should’ve been escorted from the building by Security and given the address of the Unemployment Office. Can the people in charge ever do anything right?

Bednar gives up lead off double. He looks like a batting practice pitcher this year. Might be time to get him out of high leverage situations with his 9+ ERA.
