Jimbo's Drinker Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Bobby "our savior" Howry comes in to keep the game close. first pitch, 3 run home run. First thing Kermit the frog says is the wind did not help that one. I get so sick of these announcers blaming the god damn wind. If Howry did not serve a f***in meatball up, this would not be an issue, the wind is not that important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benchwarmerjim Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Brenley is alright sometimes. But the other guy (Kasper?)

AbeFroman Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 According to Santo, Howry made a brilliant pitch... the likes of which would have foiled the great babe ruth himself... ... but austin kearns just got lucky Then a confused Santo called his team the Cincinnati Cubs and recalled his days hanging out with Grandpa Simpson in the ole canteen in 1921 wearing an onion on his belt, as was the style at the time....

whitesoxfan101 Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 (edited) I was there in full Sox gear (my brother is a Reds fan....better than a Cubs fan right?) and their was NO WIND AT ALL during the last 3 innings of the game, and in fact shortly after the game ended the wind shifted and was blowing in. Howry's problem is he threw a high fastball and Kearns hammered it. Actually, if that ball is hit in the 3rd inning it probably ends up on the street. (Oh, and maybe it's because of last year, but I didn't get a word about my Sox stuff all day, haha). Note #2: These were free tix, so no I didn't pay to go to Wrigley.

YES! Nothing better than bashing a Cubs player while using a Simpsons' reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After further review on MLB.TV, the Cub TV guys specifically said how that ball had "no help from the wind as it's pretty much stopped blowing" and they then showed the flags not moving. *sighs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
