After the game, Lou Piniella said that it was just good baseball.
Haven't heard that a whole lot this season.
With Jeff Suppan on 2nd base, Prince Fielder hit a liner.
The Cubs had the crazy Fielder switch so that Theriot is playing short center and Fontenot's in short right.
The ball went right by Carlos Zambrano's glove, past Theriot behind second, and into just right of center - Kosuke Fukudome's left.
Woulda been alot tougher if it was to Fukudome's right and he'd have had to backhand it.
But it came right into his glove and everything was moving towards home when Kosuke scooped and tossed.
There is no more exciting play than a close one at the plate.
The ball skipped once, Koyie Hill caught it and with a big sweep he tagged Suppan out.
Breathtaking.
Lots of stuff went really well yesterday - Carlos pitching like Carlos can, Heilman giving up nothin', and Gregg getting the last 6 outs. And of course man of steel nerves Jake Fox working the count like a stud to finally get the walk in the 10th and bring home the winning run.
Cubs 2 Brewers 1.
Today the Cubs with a chance to take the first 3 games in this 4 game series.
Awesome.
Go Cubs.
