[Slightly Sarcastic]

Thanks for the replies so far. Keep em coming

Any one remember any really good pitching duels ?

July 22, 2005 - STL 2, Cubs 1 in 11 innings

Zambrano Vs. Carpenter. both throw 9 innings of 1 run ball, with Zambrano turning in the better of the two great performances.

but, as has been the case for years now, the bullpen lets a great outing go to waste

[DodgerBlue8188]

I dont remember the date. But the Dodgers came back and beat the Braves after a Braves hitter hit a grand slam I think, then Bradley came right back with a grandslam of his own.

[Brannu]

The best game for me was The Cardinals comeback in the top of the ninth againt The Reds. They were down 6 runs ... 9-3 in the ninth, came back to score 7 runs in the top of the ninth to win 10-9.

Great half an inning.

Here's a link to the game:

How about Angels winning 5 out of 6 from the Dodgers

Or the ANgels making the playoffs while the Dodgers won what 70 games

We're talking about specific games here, not the season overall.

I also remember a ten inning shutout...I believe Carpenter against the Astros in a pitching duel vs Clemens (don't remember the exact date, maybe someone can help)

Opening Day: Reds come back in the bottom of the ninth with 3 runs with a walk-off homer from Joe Randa in his first game as a Red. Then the season kinda got worse and worse for me.

Wasn't it Mulder?

Pirates 3 Cubs 0

July 16th, at Wrigley. Rookie Zach Duke pitched a masterpiece, rapped his first MLB RBI on a sac fly, and beat Maddux and my Cubs in one of best pitching duels I've ever seen. Neither man was overpowering, but they were both hitting their spots and frustrating the opposing hitters.

One game I remember especially from '05 was the June 12th Red Sox/Cubs game at Wrigley, in which Wakefield pitched very well and also scored all the way from 1st on a double. No big deal you might say, except that's a long-time AL pitcher with not a heck of a lot of baserunning experience, pelting around the bases, windmilling his arms as if he was fighting off a swarm of bees, and slid in safely under the throw. Perty cool. Oh, and the Sox won which makes it cooler still.
