[Ski]

Why can't we ever do this at the beginning of the year? You know, get some momentum and a winning record early, and maybe actually be good for the whole year?

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS WIN !! CUBS WIN !! CUBS WIN !!

This team is so bi-polar. Go Cubs!

[Guest]

If the Cubs are trying to make the NL Central into a two-team race, they've done a great job of it over the past two weeks.

 

Swept by Milwaukee

Lose 2 of 3 to St. Louis

Sweep Pittsburgh

Take at least two from Cincinnati

[UMFan83]

Oh well, winning is fun whenever it happens, its just more fun when it means something.

 

I'm excited to see how far we can take this streak.

[CubmanPi]

two-team race

Give it another couple weeks, it'll be a 3-team race again... 8-)

[NCCubFan]

CUBS are 38-4 when they lead at the end of the 8th inning

Cubs are 49-0 when they lead at the end of the 9th inning or later. :D

[TruffleShuffle]

man, watched the video of alonso's home run.. he does not run gracefully at all. i think it took him close to 26 seconds to round the bases. he needs to be traded, because his bat isn't good enough to make up for what is sure to be horrid defense in left.

[UMFan83]

You sure we haven't taken the lead in extra innings and blown it this year?
