The other night when Len Kasper pointed out that Sam Fuld had gotten hits off Tim LIncecome and Randy Johnson - two Cy Young award winners - in the same game I just thought wow.
That's one for his own personal diary, right?
Friday night's game was SUCH a great one to watch, and not just because it lasted only 1 hour and 56 minutes and ended relatively early.
Carlos Zambrano finally showed up, with a couple weeks to go in the season, and pitched his game of the year.
A 2-hit 9-inning shutout.
I think all the trade talk got his hackles up.
He wanted to show us that he's as good as this kid from San Francisco.
But he was better, especially with the bat.
And Saturday afternoon, well you can see the guys are just playing pretty loose.
It looks like fun.
Like it hasn't looked all year.
The more I think about it, and if it's fair or not won't really matter, but Milton Bradley is sooo gonna be remembered as the scapegoat of 2009.
(And I'll happily continue to pile on.)
They beat the Giants and Barry Zito 6-2, with Tom Gorzellany looking like he might really be a Cub next year.
Aramis hit one out, Jake Fox knocked a couple in...
Jake Fox now has 43 RBIs and 11 homers in 77 games.
Anyway, the Cubs are keeping your interest at least a little, right?
Kinda fun.
Who'da thought anything about fun, even a week ago?
