Cubs @ D-Backs - 4/4 *Opening Day* - Game Thread

[awefullspellare]

Hollandsworth with another blooping hit. Good game for him so far. Barrett needs to do something ehre after 2 mediocre atbats.

[awefullspellare]

Hollandsworth almost got picked off. Barrett decided to hit it to LF and line out. Z up again.

[awefullspellare]

Aquino (sp?) is the new P for D-Backs. Zambrano hits a bouncing ball up the middle and moves Todd over for Corey.

[awefullspellare]

Corey works a 3-0 count and walks to bring up Walker.

Cubs score another one. Dbacks playing just horribly. Nomar is up.......doing pretty good so far today.

[awefullspellare]

Walker hits one off the 1B for a single. Corey to 3rd and Hollandsworth scores. Nomar up now and he K's.

[awefullspellare]

Counsell singles and now Clayton is up. He K's for Z's 7th K. Gonzalez up.

[awefullspellare]

Gonzalez K's again 8 Ks now. He is probably going to be in until he bats again. Atleast that is what I would do with him.

[awefullspellare]

Glaus hits a double and moves Counsell to 3rd. Big at bat for Shawn Green here with a chance to cut the lead to 4.

[awefullspellare]

Green walks to bring up Cruz with the bases loaded.

[RockSports17]

Walk by Zambrano...

[awefullspellare]

Cruz is walked and Zombrano can't finish the 5th to qualify for the win. Glendon is coming in and could go all the way probably. Z is pissed and got ejected too. I have to go eat now but I may be back later.
