Hi, Sue!
I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

And the fool’s gold lasts approximately 23 hours. Not a good team. Not even close.

Marmol in to pitch
Fuld stays in Center, Fonty playing third.
LaRoche at the plate, Moss on deck., LaRoche in the hole.
0-2 on LaRoche.

Is Marmol doing something different?
He usually either strikes people out, or walks them.
This time, they all hit the ball. Weird…

Bradley
pushed in the first run, Blanco the second, I think.
I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

Blanco singled to score Fox in the 1st...
Theriot homered in the 3rd, Bradley doubled in Soto in the 4th.

it wasn't the first
because I was already paying attention, and I missed the whole first inning.

Just what this team needed
A businesslike, drama-free win. Good starting pitching and 6-up, 6-down from Marmol and Gregg. The bats shut down after the fourth, but Duke is pretty damn good.
