As Bobby Howry was working on giving up four runs in the ninth inning to erase an 8-3 lead for the Cubs against the Rockies Monday night, a fan ran out to the mound and actually asked him, “What are you doing?”
Howry and the Cubs eventually won the game, but as SPORTSbyBROOKS discovered, the real news is that the Bears might have found a replacement for Tank Johnson. Check out the take down by one of the Cubs’ security guards:
On a related note how about the announcer in the YouTube.com clip? First he forgets Lou Pinella’s name, then called him a drunk because he has “rosy red cheeks” then dropped this little ditty at the end of the clip: “Maybe if they stopped selling him 10 bottles of beer at Wrigley Field, he wouldn’t get so hammered on that cheap, piss beer they have at Wrigley Field. They encourage him to drink and then he runs on to the field, what do you expect?”
Uh, there are thousands of fans who drink nightly at ballparks across America and not everyone runs out onto the field there champ.
