If today proved anything, it is that if you give the Chicago Cubs 13 innings, they will hang three runs on you.
Though it’s always good to get a win, it’s another series loss for the Cubs. At least Ted Lilly helped his trade value.

Ace, I’ve gone blind, too, but not because of Grabow’s win. Did you notice that Howry fittingly lowered his ERA to 6.66? Maybe his theme song should be “Sympathy for the Devil” when he takes the field. He did, after all, notch his third hold of the season.
I refuse to believe it’s been anything but a statistical fluke. Except the 6.66 ERA part, of course.
