Sam Fuld fills in, sparks 4-1 win over Pirates

How might history have changed if Wally Pipp had a $136 million contract? We'll probably never know. Meanwhile, rookie Sam Fuld filled in for slumping leadoff hitter/left fielder Alfonso Soriano by reaching base three times, making a sliding catch to end the fourth and throwing out a runner at the plate to end Pittsburgh's last scoring threat in the fifth as the Cubs beat the Pirates 4-1 for just their second road series win in two months.
