In another must-win, in another short rest start, CC Sabathia takes the mound against the Bucs and left-hander Paul Maholm (9-8, 3.68ERA, 137K/57BB). The line-up is.... shall we say.... weird:
CF Mike Cameron
3B Bill Hall
LF Ryan Braun
1B Prince Fielder
SS J.J. Hardy
RF Corey Hart
2B Rickie Weeks
C Jason Kendall
LHP CC Sabathia
Bill Hall and Mike Cameron are the first two batters, but as Tom H notes, they're batting .609 and .667 against Maholm. That's in 23 and 15 at-bats too, so hopefully the trend will continue.
Meanwhile, the Cubs play the Mets at Shea. The match-up is Zambrano (14-6, 3.77, 128K/68BB) against Perez (10-7, 4.10ERA, 168K/97BB).
Go Brewers!
And go... Cubs... *shiver*.

Cubs are phoning it in
They're up 1-0
Z is in trouble.
Shit. Walked one in.
Damn it Z. He's gonna walk in another one. Why does he have to suck when we need him to be good?
Grand Slam Mets. FUCK!
fucking Zambrano
Good news; Cubs tied it back up.
Can someone tell me what the fuck Suppan is doing starting Friday instead of tomorrow?
Bad; the Pirates got to CC.
Damage limited to 1 though.
Wonder when the bats will wake up. The second trip through the order better not be the same as the hitless first.
Cubs tied it up, but cc looks overworked.
I'm in a dive bar in north eastern california.
Dive bars are good.
Fuck. You can't sac bunt right to somebody crashing in.
Phillies are getting destroyed. That could still matter.
Nice to see a 1-2-3 for cc
Tie game. Fielder stays hot.
Good news; bases juiced. Bad news; 1-man rally-killer up.
Nice to see the towels at Miller Park.
About time Weeks started to take pitches. This time, it gives the Crew a lead.
Somebody teach Sabathia the power of letting a wild pitcher keep on throwing, please?
Still, I'll take 3-1 Crew.
Got the lead. Nice.
This bar is awesome, even though I'm the only person here wearing a shirt with buttons.
Well, there's one other one, but it isn't buttoned.
Bill hall is bad
Gallardo starting tomorrow
Cubs just took the lead!
Lee just made a great play that may save some runs.
Go corey!
On what planet is craig counsell a better hitter than cc sabathia?
Hall is fucking terrible at baseball. Absolutely TERRIBLE
And Svuem is a joke
Tied up again at shea but it could have been worse.
Shit. Gagne. Why not coffe? That guy is awesome.
What? They needed more dirt? What gives with this pow wow?
Cubs are throwing it now
Brewers win! Now c'mon cubs!
Cubs score! Now hold it.
Where are you jerks? This is big.
2 more outs!
1 MORE!!!!
Tied for the wild card!
stupid polyanna fans
What does that even mean?
"Cubs are phoning it in"
Cubs win in 10
Hardly phoning it in wouldn't you say
I don't know, they tried pretty hard to lose. But you're right. They pulled it off in a tough situation. That takes effort.
Yes, if only I could have seen the future when I said the Cubs were phoning it in (they went down 5-1 immediately after I posted that by the way)
