The night cap went fine for the Cubs as they posted a 5-1 win over Florida. Marlin Byrd put the pop in the lineup with a splendid 2-run homer. That came in the 4th. Starlin Castro aided the effort with 2 hits and 2 RBIs, adding a double to his total. With most of the run support the big boppers didn't have to do much.
Coleman, who started paved the way for the bats to send off as he went 5.2 innings. He allowed 4 hits and 5 walks while garnering 7 Ks. Kerry Wood also came in to notch the 8th inning and hammer down his 7th hold. The 7-4 victory Wednesday night showed the Cubs turning the corner a bit.
The middle-to-bottom end of the order took pride with delivering a knock out blow to the Fish in late innings. Koyie Hill added a few hits while being driven in by his teammates while the Marlins made 2 errors which lead to runs scored. Marlon Byrd did fine with an RBI knocked in too. Cubs gear up now for Interleague Play against the Red Sox.
