Jermaine Van Buren in to pitch for Chicago
The stinkin' double-header isn't until Friday...what's up with this for the second night in a row?
Warm-up, I guess

Yep. That was all about the hands. Aurilia was expecting the hop at a certain point, the ball skidded on him, and he adjusted exceptionally well. And the throw wasn't easy.
That was an excellent veteran play.
Now Narron decides that Larue (an extra-base threat) should sac bunt so the Cubs can get to Aaron Holbert.
Narron would rather have the base than the out. I entirely disagree with that move given the situation.

Holbert bounces to third that turns into a 5-3 double play, 4-4 middle of 10
Coffey in to pitch
And immediately after I post the above, the Holbert hits into the DP the Cubs needed.
Narron is awful at managing Outs in ballgames. That alone can end up costing a team 5 Wins per year.

Lee Ks swinging, 1 out
Nice move, Jerry. Maybe next time you can have Dunn lay down a sac bunt and PH Harang for Aurilia. That would be equally as stupid as what you just did.
I loath the bunt
