CUBS are 59-2 when they lead at the end of 7 innings

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

Wow!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Glaus flied out to center field

[Transmogrified Tiger]

So will that second run count against Demp since the guy advanced on a wild pitch by Shark?

 

Yep. He would've scored on the hit anyways, and wild pitches are not errors.

Dempster let him on, the run goes against him.

[BCVM22]

Wood's velocity is there, but it seems like his control is off.

Molina grounded out to second, 4-3

I can't believe he was positioned there. That's ridiculous.

Funny how baseball is. The Cubs look awful offensively 7 out 8 innings in a game, yet in that one inning, they worked the count, got some hard hit balls and are now 3 outs from winning.
