Why did they bring in Camp, Sean, did Garza walk a couple in the 9th?

You give up Marshall to get Travis Wood. I think the Cubs got robbed.

Not sure why. Here's the play by play...
Guess they wanted to play a match up on Kottaras. Either way, a "W" for the good guys.

Top 9th: Milwaukee - N. Morgan grounded out to shortstop - R. Braun struck out swinging - N. Aoki safe at first on pitcher M. Garza's throwing error, N. Aoki to second - G. Kottaras hit for T. Dillard - S. Camp relieved M. Garza - G. Kottaras grounded out to shortstop

Wood was great when he first came up with the Cubbies. Shipped him off to Cleveland and it was downhill from there...

My bad, I thought you were talking about Travis Wood, not Kerry Wood.

Hey, the Cubs are the one who got rid of Marshall for T. Wood. Marshall excelling for us, and T. Wood is down on the farm.

Sorry, I couldn't resist, Whee!

Whatever team I root for loses, and usually in a big way. Whatever team I least want to win will usually make it to the middle of the playoffs, often going all the way to the Series.

So, what's it worth to you guys to have me go full-on Cub hater this year? I usually root for the Cubbies but if I root against them then maybe, just maybe .....

Back in '04 I turned against the Red Sox (briefly) and look what happened.
