Cardinals @ Cubs: Leake vs Arrieta (Game 153)

Cubs 5, Cardinals 0
W: Arrieta (18-7); L: Leake (9-11)
PREVIEW
STL (80-72): RHP Mike Leake (9-10, 4.54)
CHC (97-55): RHP Jake Arrieta (17-7, 2.96)
First pitch: 1:20pmCST

Arrieta gave up 3 ER in 6 innings to lose to the Brewers on Saturday. He’s 2-1 with a 3.45 in his three games against the Cardinals this season. Overall, they are 36-186 (.194!) against him. Grichuk is 4-9 with a HR.

Leake had a no-decision in San Francisco in his last outing, giving up 2 ER in 6 innings. He’s 0-2 with a 4.26 in his three games against the Cubs this year. For their careers, the Cubs are 53-192 (.276). Coghlan is 11-19 with 2 HR.

St. Louis is currently a half a game behind for one of the Wild Card spots--behind the Mets and Giants. The Cubs are in a position to do some damage to them, which should be some nice motivation and preparation for the post-season.

Al Reyes (3-1, 1.03) versus Jason Hammel (15-9, 3.56) tomorrow at 12:05pmCST.

Go Cubs!

Petralta, Gyrko, Fat Adams is cards British version of million dollar infield. Million pound infield! Get it? Because they are all overweight!

So, does this mean the Cubs have home field advantage through the playoffs? Magic number is one, but they're ahead of the Nats in the season series? I think I've only heard that discussed here. Should we shout this from the rooftops and slaughter some fatted calves?

    Folks, I've known Richard Lovelady since he was an 18 yr old Freshman at East Ga State College in Swainsboro, Ga.

    I was the WBB Coach at EGSC and Richard was their prize recruit from outside of Hinesville, Ga.

    My roommate was the Pitching Coach there.

    Richard showed up a skinny, loose lipped, 83mph Lefty. Pretty good basketball player actually. 

    My roommate became the head coach.

    Richard came back from a minor injury for his Sophmore year a more serious man. He hit 90mph and started mowing GA JUCO hitters down. It was really fun to watch.

    He was the first D1 signee for EGSC baseball (school had only had athletics for five yrs at that point). He went to Kennesaw St and became their closer. One yr later, he hit 100mph and KC drafted him in the 10th Rd. 

    He lost the high velo with a surgery a while back.

    It's so cool to see him in MLB. And now he's a Cub!! It's crazy to realize I actually "know" a Cub.

    He's a legit good guy.

    Easy to root for!!!

    Tim. Thanks for remembering Lee Elia Day. It will always be one of the most epic rants in all sports.  It took about 3 seconds to recognize him from your picture but I  did get it right. 

    Now that Les Grobstein is no longer with us, that might contribute to this grand piece of Cubbery fading.

    Just like fine wine, it should be savored...unedited. 40 years, wow.
