CUBS’ CLUTCH HITS CUTS MAGIC # to 2!!!!!!!!! CUBS WIN!
Harden didnt pitch his best stuff today.. Even though he did get out of a pickle the 1st inning.. he walked way too many in the 1st.
Ramirez and Edmonds had 1 solo homerun each. Then with 3 back to back to back hits, Geovany Soto SMACKED a 3 run homer to tie the game in the bottom of the 9th. Thank goodness! They made a BIG comeback.
Wood was caught in a pickle but got out of it! Ramirez got Hardy in a run down at 3rd, getting him out. and Theriot makes a nice play at SS to get the 3rd out, not having anyone score in the top of the 12th.
The game is still going on now in the bottom of the 12th.. Ward is up with 0 outs.. He walks. 0 outs man on 1st. Reed Johnson is up. I think we should end this.. NOW. REED JOHNSON lays down the PERFECT bunt to advance Marquis to 2nd!!!!!! Alright. Nice bunt! Soriano is up. 1 out. UGH He’s gonna intentionally walk him. Theriot comes up. COME ON THERIOT!!!!!!!!! YOU’RE MY HERO!!!! Man on 1st and 2nd. 1 out. Come on Theriot…. you got it. Just a base hit. Theriot flys out.. advancing Marquis to 3rd. Alright 2 outs… Derrek Lee is up! Just a little hit!! DERREK LEE GETS A BASE HIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7-6!!!!!! CUBS WIN!!!!!!!!! CUBS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CUBS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MAGIC NUMBER IS 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Let’s keep thinking TEAM”- Lou Pinella
RIGHT ON Sweet Lou! Right on!
STICK IT TO EM’ CUBBIES! Lilly’s 15th Win.
How cool would it have been to have 2 NO HITTERS in back to back games?!?! Oh well. Giving up only 1 hit in 2 games is a BIG accomplishment for both Zambrano and Lilly. Lilly pitched awesome today with 9 strikeouts and 1 hit through 7 innings. Lilly is now 15-9
Derrek Lee, Jim Edmonds and Geovony Soto each had a homerun to contribute to the 6-1 win.
I’m lovin’ EVERY SINGLE moment of this. These players are showing their true colors. They just need to keep on truckin’. Next game is tomorrow against the Milwaukee Brewers at Wrigley Field at 7:05 CENTRAL TIME.
Here’s some photo action.
Cool picture of Ted Lilly pitching.
The Font & D-Lee after Lee’s homerun.
I’ll be updating more tomorrow during the Cubs- Brewers game. Have a good night. Respect.
