Tigers sweep the Cubs
Winless so far this road trip
Crosstown Classic next
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

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

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
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

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
