The Signs Point To A Cub Victory
Good signs from Wednesday night's 10-6 Cub victory at Arizona:
- Alfonso Soriano returning to the lineup with an RBI and a double; Alfonso Soriano returning to the lineup, period
- Mark DeRosa being able to leave his outfielder's glove in the locker room
- Derrek Lee hitting his first home run in more than a month
- Aramis Ramirez and Geovany Soto breaking their respective 0-for-forever hitless streaks
- Kosuke Fukudome walking three times
- Ted Lilly sliding into third base without breaking his leg or his neck
- Carlos Marmol snapping off some nasty sliders and working a scoreless ninth inning (I choose to overlook the double, the base on balls, and the fact that on Thursday, Kerry Wood will be off to meet another hand specialist and probably get a new ointment prescription)
- Ronny Cedeno striking out as a pinch hitter on a head-high pitch—the familiarity of it is comforting
