National League fans, rejoice and give thanks to the

W Sox Matt Thorton and Cubs Byrd..Byrd gets KEY at bat in the game, drawing a 2 out walk and giving McCann the opt to get that huge hit. Then makes the key D play in the 9th

Thorton, maybe his performance tonight may be the start for his teammates to return to early form.

And to those W Sox fans who knew they would rebound as they have, just go ahead a copy and paste that ticket at 60-1 on them that was offered on June 5th

Woo Hooo..Go Byrd ( not much to cheer for this season)

When does NHL begin

yawn.....he is a good guy and was fun while in Texas but the reality is Byrd is not good enough to be the fourth outfielder in Texas

the rest of the NL would be wise to throw the guy offspeed all day.......guy can't hit a curve ball to save his life......

Someone should have told Girarde and Thorton

I can see why you don't like him..only averaged .295 with an OBP of .346 in 3 years in Texas. Did the opposition toss only fastballs?

Best player on Cubs, so you know how the balance of Cubs are

You ever play the game?

From the age of 8 to 80, struggling with off speed balls is like breathing, even in Texas.

Imagine that, can't hit off speed balls and his 4 year average is about .300

You or your other Texas buddy been blasting Byrd all season

It's a HUGE DROP off that perch you put yourself on, HUGE. The stop can damn near kill one.

Quit being a jag because if you happen to meet the W Sox I would have to stop watching baseball.

Only Cub fan highlight of year this is how deserate these assholes are for attention. Man Bobbie why did i think you would post something like this Byrd and Thornton didnt even deserve to be an all star at least 6-8 players better then them. MLB has to stop taking one player from every team and take the vote away from the stupid ass fans go back to the old school way of things.

Cubs pefomance in 1st half bringing out the worst in Bobber..............

played the game my whole life by the way Bobber......

from the age of 8 to 80 pitchers often get caught up in bringing the heat and forget about the offspead comments you made previously
