dempster is 9 - 0 at wrigley...he's overdue for a loss...
I can't believe Dempster is undefeated at home. That needs to change tonight.
Could be some rain in the next 30-60 minutes. The skies west of here don't look promising.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Edmonds makes a diving catch on Hairston's fly ball.
George provides the man love to Edmonds. "A Dandy!"
Bruce hit by the pitch.
Junior flies out to left. 2 outs.
Phillips grounds into a force out at 2nd. Reds did not score but did work deep into the count making Dempster throw a lot of pitches.
At least Dempster had to throw a lot of pitches.
Dead Horse Alert - BP is not a clean up hitter against righties.
Dempster threw 20 pitches that inning.
Making Dempster throw 20 pitches is a nice sign. Reds hitters looked like they went up there planning to watch some pitches.
I'll take a swipe at that horse. Just plain old stupid.
