I'd have taken my chances as opposed to Castro being out by a country mile.I don't think LaHair would have gotten anything to hit with a runner on third and two outs.
With anyone but LaHair coming up to bat, I MIGHT agree.I think that was a good send. Castro made a mental error by not running hard out of the box. He runs hard right away and he scores.Pat Litasch is doing a horrible job at 3rd base this year. Just horrible.

Agree 100%.....and I will say it again....when you hit the ball, even if you know it is going to be foul...FUCKING RUN.

Country mile, city mile, frequent flyer miles, I don't care what kind of mile, he was out by 2 or 3 of them, and that's with a horrible throw up the line.

I agree. Let your run producers drive him in. Hudson hasn't been great against lefties this year.I'd have taken my chances as opposed to Castro being out by a country mile.I don't think LaHair would have gotten anything to hit with a runner on third and two outs.

Cubs are very aggressive today. Wonder if that was the scouting report on Hudson.

Fair to wonder how much of the surprisingly awesome pitching is due to defensive upgrades, and better defensive positioning.

I cant remember the last time I seen this many balls smoke by the other team turned into outs because we were in the right spots. I starting to like this Sveum guy.
