Cubs breaking records

Now that was fun.  I go to Buffalo Wild Wings over lunch yesterday to watch a bit of the Cub game… So I happen to be there during that 2nd inning.  Yikes – that was pathetic!  Leiber gave up 4 bombs in the 2nd inning alone which was a franchise record for one inning off of one pitcher (I’d hope).  The Reds went on to bomb the Cubs 9-0 and hit 7 HR’s off of their pitching.  Nasty!

So let me get this straight Lou.  You can take out Rich Hill in the 1st inning after giving up 1 run and no hits (sure, 5 walks sucks but still).  But when Lieber gives up 3 bombs in the 2nd inning alone you can’t take him out?  You have to wait til #4 gets rocketted into the bleachers?  And add insult to injury – Lieber was Hill’s replacement in the rotation when Lou sent him down to the minors.  Brilliant move as usual Lou-ser.  Something tells me you won’t be popping the champaign again this year!
