The Cubs try to put a horrible weekend series versus the Brewers behind them and get going against a Pirates team that has just taken 2 of 3 from state rivals the Phillies. The Cubs send rookie sensation Sean Marshall to the hill in search of his third win, while the Pirates send struggling right hander Victor Santos. This is the first game of a short 2 game set before the Cubs head off on a 9 game West Division tour with 2 @ the DBacks, 4 @ San Diego, and 3 at San Fran before returning home vs. San Diego for 3 games. The Cubs need to do well againt these teams as all four of them are weak teams that a team that is supposedly battling for a championship should beat up on.

 

Also, by the time they come home, hopefully the Cubs will have Kerry Wood back.

 

 

The Starters:

 

Sean Marshall (2-0, 4.22 ERA, .94 whip)

The Cubs look to rebound from a series where, in the last two games, they were outscored 25-2.

 

Also, I try to improve my game thread starter record from 0-3, or I may be sent back to the minors...

 

I also have a bad habit of missing starts.

Just as a point of clarification and so as to avoid the confusion experienced by myself and others during Friday's game, the WGN portion of the broadcast is of the radio variety, correct?

Especially since row 1 isn't covered.

 

Quite a few very good seats available for the entire series, including a pair in row 1 of section 118 for Tuesday's value game.

Does anybody know how to put a picture in your sig?

 

Is that a rhetorical question?

If Kerry Wood and Mark Prior were healthyand made 5 starts a piece the cubs could be standing in first place with a 18-5 record.

 

Pardon my asking but,

 

How exactly do you win when your team scores 0 runs in 9 innings?
