I Agree Somewhat
in that ARam doesn’t always run out every time he makes contact. Then again maybe I’m so old-school that “looking like you mean it” counts more in my book.

Nope, that's it...good bye San Francisco Dustys
Let my ashes blow in a beautiful snow from the prevailing 30 mile an hour southwest wind...
When my last remains go flying over the left field wall, I'll bid the bleacher bums adieu,
And I will come to my final resting place, out on Waveland Avenue.

Well, we lost to a great pitcher....and we scared em at the end...oh well...
4 1/2 game lead and we should be better and rested and healthy for the 2nd half….feeling good

I figured. . .
When Soriano went down, they needed to stay within 2 or 3 game of 1st place, and they’d be OK when he came back. They have done a whole lot better than that.

Good up to this point
This team is the best cubs team that I have ever seen. Hopefully the second half goes as good as the first. Maybe less injuries…
Have a good break everyone!

Notice th "L" flag flying from the scoreboard in that last shot?
It’s appropriate.

Interested To See How They'd Do
against the best, because they’ll be doing that every day should they make the playoffs. Not a horrible effort except for DeRo’s miscue in RF. Hopefully come playoff time, DeRo will be at 2B and Dome will be in RF.

Not to mention. . .
No Soriano. . . I figure they match up well against any pitcher they are likely to see in the playoffs.
