How in the heck can you lose a game when the opposing team only gets three hits in 12 innings and you get 10 hits?

I swear to God that baseball is the only sport on the planet where you can do everything right and fail, and everything wrong and succeed. :kaioken:
 



Cubs lost to the Phillies 4-3 in 12 innings. The Phillies got THREE HITS the whole game and Cubs got TEN HITS.:kaioken:

In fact, the Phillies did not get A HIT until the sixth inning.
 
Make sense to me...........When home runs are hit, and the other team strand runners, it can make a difference. :lol: :emlaugh:
 
Its baseball kendrick. Its not about hits, its about runs. You can win a game without any hits because of errors and walks.

They should have lost it in 9 innings but Lidge blew another save for the Phillies.
 
It's the same in other sports, take football, you can have 500 yards in total offense, but miss field goals and get stopped in the red zone, the other team can't get a first down, but runs a few kicks back and return a few fumbles/int for touchdowns and beat you.

YOu should know that, just look at the Bears a few years ago.

Zambrono is a nut case. Marmol should have sat his azz down during the WBC. Oh and Kevin Gregg ain't sh@t. If Ramirez had not been injured (which is every season) they would be in first place.

You left out the part about not having a defense. That's normally contributes to those situations.

That pissed me off too. Hey I'm going to be in the Chi from 9/1-9/4. I plan to attend the Astros/Cubs game on 9/1. I tried like hell to get a ticket for the Soxs/Cubs game but there weren't any good seats left. I might just go down to a bar near Wrigley and watch the game. You down???
 
Be careful not to stay in the city limits of Chicago. You know they have black people there and you are likely to get robbed and or killed. Good luck. I hope you are staying in one of the burbs outside of the city.

You are going to Chicago? I hope you dont get shot getting off the plane. Mess around in Chi-town if you want to. You will wake up dead. Didnt about 9 people get killed in Chicago last weekend? I hope the mayor cleans that dump up.

With your mouth, you certainly would be dead.

You are a very funny guy GR. My home town is all right.
 
The Cubs are cheating on me again, Styles. I feel like the chick who goes on Maury and finds out her husband or boyfriend fails the lie detector test about cheating, and vows to leave him after the show. However, she always comes back. :shame:
 
Kendrick, all sports have some situations like that.

The God of them, IMO, is hockey. You can outshoot a team by 30, have more power plays, knock the living hell out of them all night and all they have to do is get a deflection, a skate in the wrong direction, and or a goaltender who is on fire that night and you can't do a damn thing about it.

Baseball is not special in that regard.
