[CardsFanInChiTown]

Taguchi irritates me. How does this guy have a job?

 

He was a good backup CF last year.

[Blueheart05]

A fitting end to the series.

 

Cubs win!

[ToupeeOnFire]

I'm glad the streak is over in a game like this and not in a 1 run game.

 

Cubs win!

[BeerHere]

Winning 4 of 6 to start the season against the Cards isn't bad. I'll take it.

[Andy]

Great pick by Mabes to end it. Good to salvage one game out of this one.

[cubfan1955]

Nice play Mabry. I'm not sad the scoreless streak is over. Takes a distraction away from him. He can now start a new streak.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

mabry with a heck of a play.

[minnesotacubsfan]

I'm glad the streak is over in a game like this and not in a 1 run game.

 

amen
