Welcome to Go Cubs Go

the Chicago Cubs are in San Francisco right now for their first game of a four game set against the Giants. The Cubs currently lead 5-0. Lilly has held the Giants to four hits in six innings. Mark Derosa hit a two run home run, Murton hit a base hit to right center to score two… basically, the Cubs are winning with the small ball, the long ball, and the pitching tonight. It’s also somewhat noteworthy that the Giants are the worst home team in all of the majors, yet have a .500 record on the road.

Some promising news heard on tonight’s broadcast was that the Cubs should be getting back Reed Johnson on Thursday and Carlos Zambrano on Friday. This would probably send Ascaiano and Patterson down to make room on the roster.

Hopefully, the Cubs can hold on to this lead tonight and end their longest losing streak of the year. Go Cubs
