Fontenot may be the least likely looking home run hitter. He packs a big punch with his 5-foot-8 physique. Where's the power come from?

"I don't know," Fontenot said. "I've always had decent power my whole life. I guess it's bat speed. Timing a little bit. My grown-man strength."

Attention Blue Jays...

… Reed Johnson is a very good baseball player. Thank you for not being competent and keeping him. The Cubs are grateful.

Bobby’s been making 8-2 victories into 8-6 victories and leaving the tying runs on base…

Mamol

I’m glad he’s gotten some rest this week. I wouldn’t have him start the 9th but get him ready if needed.

Go Cubs

crud, I completely forgot during the stretch

“Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack,
I don’t care if I never get back,
Cause it’s root, root, root for the CUBBIES,
If they don’t win it’s a shame.
For it’s one, two, three strikes, you’re out,
At the old ball game.”

LET’S

HOLD

THEM

NOW!
