Yesterday the Cubs offense took care of business, eventually providing ample run support behind Jason Marquis. The right-hander went 6 innings and only allowed 2 runs on a couple of hits. Everything went smooth except for the Alfonso Soriano pulling his hamstring early in the game. He had to leave the game and is listed as day-to-day. Thankfully this wasn't a serious injury yet it still sucks.
Derek Lee chipped in with 2 hits and a RBI in the win over San Diego while Michael Barrett and Mark DeRosa both homered to give the Cubs an advantage. Soriano was 1-for-2 with a run scored before pulling his hamstring. The bats came alive and I look to see a continuation today as the Cubs will face the Padres at 2:20 p.m. for Game 2 at Wrigley. Wade Miller squares off with former Cub, Greg Maddux. The Cubs seek redemption and will try to bring out the whooping stick against the veteran Cy Young winner. We'll see what happens.
