Can we just forget that today’s game even happened?
You are probably feeling like I am right now after watching that Cubs-Orioles game. Can we just forget that the game even happened? The Cubs should I say Jason Marquis were rocked by the Orioles as they lost 11-4. Marquis was hammered early and often as he only lasted four innings after giving up seven runs.
It was just Marquis however, three Cubs relievers gave up runs as they pitched in relief of Marquis. Jon Lieber and Michael Wuertz both gave up one run while Scott Eyre gave up two runs. I sure hope that todays game was just a one game fluke because they pitched badly.
Eric Patterson led the Cubs with two rbi at the plate. Patterson has really been swinging the bat well since being called up. Henry Blanco and Daryle Ward both had rbi’s as well for the Cubs. Mike Fontenot and Ryan Theriot both finished the game with two hits.
Hopefully the players will go enjoy a nice meal with their families this evening and then get ready to play the White Sox Friday afternoon down on the south side.
