Wow, I didn't know that a guy trying to catch a foul ball could shake up the confidence of a professional baseball team to the point where they play the remaining outs like shat and lose the game. It was in the stands and it could have been playable but it wasn't fan interference. Cubs fans need to quit scapegoating this poor guy and cowboy the funk up and realize that hey, the Cubbies bombed at the end, done and done. Had that ball been out of Alou's reach nothing would have been said about it but because there was a person there it is so much easier to place blame.

Let's recap shall we?

- Alou doesn't catch the foul ball and Castillo gets another chance and is walked - good job Prior.(pitch was wild and Pierre gets to third.
- Pudge breaks one into left on an 0-2 pitch which produces an RBI (Pierre) I think.

Ok, so the score is 3-1 in favor of the Cubs, they still have the game, it should be butter, it should still be over.

-We now have runners on both first and second. Cabrera hops it to Gonzo which SHOULD have been a double play that ended the inning. Yea, that's right, oops go to Gonzo on that one.

-Prior pitches to Lee who rocks a two-run double and ties the game. (looks like Prior was slipping something fierce).

-Good old Dusty brings in Farnsworth who intentionally walked Mike Lowell. (I have a major problem with this, you have a fresh arm out on the mound and instead of giving him the heat you intentionally walk him? FRESH ARM.)

- A sacrifice fly brings the game to 4-3 in favor of the Marlins.

-YET another intentional walk on Hollandsworth which loads the bases for Mordecai, who just rocks a horrid-like tre-run double off the wall in center/left-center field.

-Finally, Pierre blazes another hit (second of the inning I think) which brings the score to 8-3 in favor of the Marlins.

The fan had nothing to do with it.

OCTOBER 15--Meet Steve Bartman. He's the poor 26-year-old Chicago Cubs fan who last night got his hands on that foul ball headed for outfielder Moises Alou's mitt. Bartman, who attended the University of Notre Dame, works for a Chicago-area consulting firm and serves as coach for a local youth baseball program. We wanted to speak with Bartman about last night's incident, but he did not return messages left on his office voicemail. And when we dialed Bartman up at his apartment--about three miles from Wrigley Field--we got a recorded message saying that his number had been disconnected. Which is probably not a bad idea.
I'm sure the south siders/white sox fans in chicago are throwing this guy a parade and showering him with presents. maybe thats where he fled

Besides, i've always been taught not to take a ball hit by the other team. you throw it back if you catch it - so why couldn't the kid just let Moises catch it!!!
You're absolutely correct!

This kid obviously interfered with Mark Prior's next pitch, and A-Gone's retarded glove.

The Cubs quit - all Cubs fans should be ashamed. It was a truly gutless performance, both nights - you let one fluke play beat you. 95 years to give up? Hi Dusty! It's Deja Vu all over again.

Don't blame the kid - blame the team that mailed it in.

Mr. honeychile is in his glory tonight! He is such a die-hard White Sox fan, I thought this series was going to give him a stroke!


I do feel a little sorry for the guy who's going to be the Cubbie whipping boy, though. I wonder how much that ball would be worth?

thats funny... i found this on espn

"In Florida, Gov. Jeb Bush said an offer of asylum to Bartman might be a good idea, and an oceanfront retreat in Pompano Beach offered him a free three-month stay if he needed to get out of Chicago."
