Surprised by the lineup for this one.

D-Rob getting the start and batting lead-off. Cozart has the day off, so Izturus is batting 8th.

Robinson LF
Choo CF
Votto 1B
Phillips 2B
Bruce RF
Frazier 3B
Mesoraco C
Izturis SS
Mike Leake RHP

Wow, that is quite different than what I guessed obviously. Very surprised he switched Robinson and Choo.

Why not let Cozart face the lefty and give Izturis a start against a righty?

After the break with Choo knocking the ball out of the glove for a SB, the Votto/Phillips ABs needing just a single for an RBI were not good.

Got just the right hop to give enough time for the glove to get there!

Great bunt by Robinson,even better play from wood.

As Robinson came to bat,on cubs broadcast, there were these chicks walking to their seat in background. After the first pitch,boom overhead camera of them. Could see right down the shirts. Well done!

Lead off double in the 8th. Would love to see someone drive in D-Rob here and get some insurance.

Really wish votto would just hit instead of trying to push everything to left field. Gives away a lot of at bats...

Imagine if we were Cubs' fans? Talk about a piss poor approach to a game. To a pitcher. To a season.

That was Chapman's easiest inning ever.

Didn't get to see the game but watched highlights on MLB Ap....Leake was great....another RBI by BP and a great play (necessary dive!)

It's great playing teh cubs.
