Hazmat had to come in to clean up mess ,east bound from 4 mile marker was shut down

The wreck here in Princeton happened at the Northern Entrance to the Toyota Plant so anyone coming from Evansville or going to Vincennes, Terre Haute and Points North got to see TMMI from the back side

Cubs up 5-3 over Cincy, lets keep it up. We need a win and beating Cincy would be a nice Division win.

[2006Coltsbestever]

5-3 Cubs Bottom of the 6th, looking good so far. Got to get some Division wins.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Bryant with a Double, now 6-3 Cubs. Glad he is back in the lineup and healthy.

[PrincetonTiger]

Looks like BA did not have a good outing tonight

[2006Coltsbestever]

Nice win by the Cubs, very much needed to keep up in the Division. Both the Cubs and Cincy are now 19-19. Happ and Rizzo both homered tonight and Bryant doubled in a run as well. I like this Happ guy! At last glance the Cards were losing 6-3 to the RedSox in the 8th, if that holds up the Cubs would only be 2.5 back.

[PrincetonTiger]

Congrats JM on your 1000 victory

Cards lost 6-3 another one of those sloppy games unearned runs cost them.

You guys are still in 1st which is key. RedSox are a pretty tough team.

Agreed 3 unearned runs is not a good thing though. Cant put my finger on it and I know we are not alone in this , the Cubs have done the same . I guess I just don't expect sloppiness from these teams I have seen this year on this scale.

Yeah compared to last season the Cubs have been pretty sloppy with some head scratching error's. I hear ya! 

[HOZER]

Cubs up 5-2 top of the 3rd.

[Jay Kirk]

Cards up 4 - 0 in 3rd

[NFLfan]

Mets lost once again 5-4 in 11 innings. They have lost 7 in a row, I believe.

 

Someone said there'd be days like these. Lol.

[Jay Kirk]

Cards broadcast Bob Gibson in the booth with Tim McCarver very interesting to say the least lol. Gibson likes the Cards team but disgusted with base running  blunders , lol hes not alone.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Cubs beat the Reds again 7-5. Now 20-19 on the season.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Yeah I was shocked they blew a 4-0 lead. I only seen the last Inning because it was on the MLB Channel. What's up with the Brewers?

From top to bottom it really is. No dominant teams but major parity, no bad teams.

Nothing they will fade IMO , its the Cubs and Cards division and the full season will show that.

Yeah I think so too but the Brewers and Reds both have played pretty well so far. I am glad the Cubs have shown up against the Reds, that series had me a little iffy going into it. The Cubs Pitching has been inconsistent all season so far and if their bats aren't going it seems like a loss. Cubs are hitting the ball like crazy against the Reds but still giving up way too many runs.

Great start, Cubs looking to sweep! and it would be a big much needed sweep because the Reds are in this mix and were playing well. I am watching now.

Cubs start a series set with the Brew Crew tomorrow, should I be scared

Haha. Thank you, buddy. I love music. 

 

You should have enough of a lead... but I see there are 2 men on and no outs?

Yeah the Cubs Pitching is really annoying at times. Up 9-0 no worries obviously but still this is kind of annoying.
