woo hoo!

Big win tonight! The game went 15 innings. I'm pretty sure the Cubs used every reliever they had out of the pen. Zambrano pitched a GREAT game today (yesterday)...I think he only gave up 2 hits. Unfortunately one was a homer by Andruw Jones...about 2 seconds after Dopey Chip call Turner Field 'not a park for home runs'.

Todd Hallandsworth came up with a top of the 9th 2 out homer to keep the Cubs alive in this game. He swung at the first pitch and right after I yelled "Ah! Don't swing at the first pitch!" (due to Corey Patterson disease spreading throughout the club) he cranked one for a homer. I then proudly announced to Court that I was an idiot.

Nice defense by the Cubs, and great game observations by Steve Stone, who is about the only reason I didn't give up and turn the radio on during the game while muting the TV. At one point Chipper Jones was up and Steve mentioned how the Cubs would shift defensively because the way Wellmeyer (I think) was pitching it'd get Chipper to hit one right down the left field line. Aramis Ramirez was standing just off the line and caught Chipper's liner that would have fallen foul had Ramirez not been there.

Great game guys!
