Pitching and defense wins games!!!! Scott Bonanno, Chris Guido and I are friends - went to grade school with Scott's sister and have known Chris for almost 30 years since playing in Hobbs in the late 90's - told both of them before game 1, "I wish we both could win". Still feel that way. They're two stand-up guys and appreciate them as people! Let's Play Ball, gentlemen!!!
Game 2: Cubs 2 Giants 1 Cubs survived another close game. Giants came to play! Pitching and defense on both sides made it a great game!
Highlights Cubs: - Carlos Espada, 2 hits, walk, SB, Run scored - Dave Mitchell, 2 hits, scored the game winner - Matt Miles, 2 hits, 2 SB - Cubs pitching held the Giants to 1 run
Highlights Cubs: - Eddie Powell turned in 7 strong innings holding a usually potent Cubs offense to just 2 runs! - Man still on Fire Wayne Phillips, 2 hits, Run scored
Decisive Game 3 tonight 7:30. Gametime temp is expected to be 65 with 61% humidity which means nothing but they always say that at the beginning of baseball games on TV so, I thought I'd give it a shot!
