excellent pitching
some defensive miscues, and too many LOB, but we got just enough runs.

I totally missed this thread.
Everyone knows the Cubs won the game, right?
I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.
No we're just here to meet hot singles

A good victory for a number of reasons
The Cubs showed they can win when scoring few runs, particularly against a very good team.
In fact, the pitching has been excellent against the Dodgers in this series so far. They had been scoring a lot of runs going into yesterday.
With the pitching matchups the next few days, I feel good about the Cubs’ chances.

We can add Billingsley...
…to the list of good pitchers the Cubs have beaten this season.

Tomorrow MOST OF US will see the game
For ONCE the Cubs will not only be the “A” game but the Yankees, Red Sox and Mets DO NOT PLAY in the Saturday game slot. Unless you live in Phoenix , Atlanta, Minneapolis or Tampa you will almost surely get the Cubs game.

You're welcome
I lost virtually the entire ninth inning when my power cut out (and, by extension, my internet connection went dead).
And my grandfather is happy, he was watching in the skybox above Wrigley Field. It was his first game in that box.

They're getting their chances
Today they cashed in; great. Yesterday they just missed; damn.
I’ll worry about the team when they’re not getting their chances. That’s when there’s real issues.
Sweet Lou for Mayor in '11.
Couldn't make the gamethread
… when they’re in the playoffs, I’ll be willing to get up at 4am to listen to the game live. :)
But just got through listening to the archived game on MLB audio (the WGN feed of course) and what a great win!!
Hopefully this is a turning point — finally winning one of these low-scoring pitching duels!
