Cubs don't quite half it

Found July 08, 2009 on Chicago Sun Times:

The Cubs on Tuesday night reached the halfway point in a season of high expectations and low returns by offering a nine-inning reminder of why they're not running away with the weakest division in baseball. In a one-night synopsis of the entire first half, the Cubs got exceptional pitching but lost 2-1 to the Atlanta Braves at Wrigley Field because they couldn't hit Sox reject Javier Vazquez.
