Game Seventy-Eight: Cubs (39-38) vs. Brewers (42-38) Game Time - 12:05pm C.T. Coverage - TV: WGN TV - Radio: 720 WGN, XM Radio Channel 175 Location - Wrigley Field, Chicago Rich Harden (5-4, 4.57/1.40) vs. Braden Looper (6-4, 4.90/1.40) Happy 4th of July from the CCO! Weather permitting ... Will Soriano or Fuld his lead off for the Chicago Cubs this afternoon? Following the Cubs walk-off win on Friday, Lou Piniella said the Cubs would be making changes to the lineup. Dave Kaplan reported his sources indicated Soriano would be in the lineup, hitting sixth against the Brewers today ... possibly with Sam Fuld in the top spot in either center or right field. Milton Bradley has only one hit in eight-career at bats against Braden Looper (a home run) while Kosuke Fukudome is 5-for-16 with a double and a home run ... it might be a good time to give Bradley a day off. The Cubs enter play today two and a half games back of the Cardinals, third place in a very tight NL Central ....

I don’t hate you for not liking futbol (uh, wait. yes, I do). Let’s just agree to disagree. I love futbol, football, and basketball and I just don’t get into baseball, golf, and...

Cubs Take 3 of 4 From Brewers; Get Healthy Tomorrow

Via Another Cubs Blog  |  July 05, 2009
I didn’t see much of the game today so I won’t talk much about it.  The Cubs won and took 3 of the 4 games over the weekend against the Brewers.  This was a huge series for the Cubs and they stepped up.  They’ve played great baseball at home all season.  The offense has come to life, but they also haven’t faced much good pitching of late.  Still, they’ve scored more...

Derrek Lee Grand Slam: the Original Soundtrack Recording

Via Another Cubs Blog  |  July 03, 2009
bodman pointed out in the game wrap how Len Kasper somehow kills the excitement on his home run calls, and noted how even a replay of Pat Hughes’ call gave him goosebumps. Pat has a way of doing that. I was listening to the game on Gameday Audio and on that call, Pat transported me instantly back into the 1980s with a call that was totally inspired by Harry Caray. I raved...
