While everyone else is completing their interleague schedules car rental reservations cheap discount over the next three days (including "rivalry" matchups between the Yankees and Mets , Dodgers and Angels , and Giants and Athletics ), the Cubs will be the NL series of the weekend. This will be the last time a MLB schedule car rental reservations cheap discount will be made this way -- with interleague play concentrated in one or two stretches, with everyone playing interleague except for one NL series. With the move of the Astros to the AL for 2013, interleague play will be year-round, and no one yet knows how this will shake out -- or even how many interleague games will be played.
car rental reservations cheap discount One more note about today -- it was 10 years ago today, June 22, 2002, that Cardinals pitcher Darryl Kile died suddenly in his Chicago hotel room, in the morning, just a few hours before a scheduled noon game between the Cubs and Cardinals at Wrigley. It was a strange experience being there; the game didn't start as scheduled at 12:05 and for a few minutes, no one in the stands at Wrigley knew what was going on. Some of us started getting cellphone calls letting us know something had happened, but without specifics.
The Cubs' Joe Girardi then gathered the entire team behind him on the field and made a heartfelt short speech announcing "a tragedy in the Cardinals' family". It was a classy thing to do, and even then showed Girardi's leadership skills.
The game was postponed. (It was made up on August 31, as part of the first day-night doubleheader in Wrigley Field history.) The next day, the Cubs and Cardinals car rental reservations cheap discount were scheduled car rental reservations cheap discount for ESPN's car rental reservations cheap discount Sunday night game. It was played with no PA announcements and no music as a tribute to Kile; his uniform number 57 was placed on the CF message board for the entire game.
Jeff Samardzija's career vs. Arizona consists of five relief appearances covering 4 innings and 22 batters. The only current D'back who has a hit off him is Justin Upton (a double). It's such a small sample size (22 PA) that it's really impossible to make any judgments. I will say that Shark has done well with command this season so far, with just 28 walks in 78 innings, along with 78 K's and only six home runs allowed. That's a good sign for his future.
car rental reservations cheap discount Joe Saunders' last start against the Cubs was April 4, 2011 at Wrigley car rental reservations cheap discount Field , where he threw six solid innings, but the Cubs won the game anyway. Look at that boxscore -- just a little over a year ago, and nine Cubs who played in that game are no longer with the team. Current Cubs are 16-for-62 (.258) against Saunders with two home runs ( Alfonso Soriano , Geovany Soto ).

I remember car rental reservations cheap discount that tragedy the Cardinals suffered very well. While I despise the Cards, I would not wish that on any sports team, and especially any family. Giardi definitely was the correct spokesman for the Cubs. We got that day right. Extremely respectful car rental reservations cheap discount on the Cubs part.

How about he offers to do the right thing instead? Admits he s a bust (at that dollar amount) and gives us a discount ala Kerry Wood? Say cuts remaining monies car rental reservations cheap discount in half or less??? /sighs continues dreaming/
I fell asleep during the pregame. Am now alternating coffee and jagermeister. As great as Mark Grace was (my previous favorite player) at the game of baseball, he s just a notch above Keith Moreland car rental reservations cheap discount at broadcasting the game. And at that, either one is better than Borowski.
