MLB: Holy Randy Wells...

[BigSkyCy2]

Might as well start this before the Cards fans do...Randy Wells faces six batters, all getting hits and giving up five runs before being pulled in the first inning with no outs.

Horrible start to the series that the Cubs entered as one of the hottest teams in baseball...

Got 'em right where we want 'em.............

I guess your possitve at least.:biglaugh:

I dont think I have ever seen a pitcher get yanked in the first with no outs. Outstanding.

 

[cloneu]

What sort of ERA is that? Infinity?

On the day, yep.

 

[gocubs2118]

Maybe we should have started Russell.

 

[Clonefan32]

The stat guys at MLB Headquarters have to be running some of the most complex algorithms known to man to determine his ERA after that one...

it's infinity

Huge inning considering our offense has struggled. Must've just been San Diego's pitching.

Hopefully Carp is sharp and we'll get ourselves this W.

So how does infinity factor into his current average?

My guess: It factors out to -0

Exactly. If you don't get yourself an out, you have an infinite number for ERA.

He went from 3.99 to 4.79.

They just add 5 runs to his season total without adding any innings.

 

[ddisu]

He should have tried being in front of the rubber by 3-4 inches.

 

[Clones21]

Not good.

He hasn't been, but the Cubs just did him a big favor.

 

[gocubs2118]

And Lou just runs us out of a potential big inning.

I don't think that came from Lou. If it did, Lee missed the sign.

Sharp or not he is 5-1 in 11 starts. I will take it and so would you.
