Game 67 – Cubs 4 Tigers 5

Baseball games like this

Game 66 – Cubs 0 Braves 2

Every streak must end

But did the Cubs have to leave

Twelve runners on base?

Game 57 – Cubs 1 Astros 2

Same score, diff’rent day

Cubs offense struggles again

Pitching has been great

Two games in a row

The only Cubs scoring comes

From solo home runs

Game 55 – Cubs 7 Astros 1

Fontenot’s birthday

He goes 4-for-5 tonight

Includes  a home run

Lilly shines again

Gives up just 3 hits, no runs

And hits a triple

Only Cubs starter

Who did not reach base tonight

Was Milton Bradley

Game 54 – Cubs 6 Reds 3

Cubs will take the win

But they’re just lucky the Reds

Played worse than the Cubs

For thirteen innings

Nobody wanted to win

‘Til Fonzie’s home run

That sparked the offense

Three hits and two runs later

Cubs had won the game

Game 53 – Cubs 3 Reds 4

I like Fontenot

But the Cubs might not have lost

With D’Ro at third

Inexperience

Is why Mike misplayed a bunt

So said Bob Brenly

Not Fontenot’s fault

That the Cubs could use more depth

Jim Hendry”s to blame

Game 52 – Cubs 2 Reds 1

At last, Zambrano

Gets hundredth win of career

Second straight for Cubs

Carlos helped himself

Lead off home run in the fifth

Was the winning run
