Carlos Zambrano pitched six innings of two run ball and the Cubs beat the Pirates 8-5 on Wednesday to finish off the three game sweep in Pittsburgh. Big Z didn’t want to come out of the game when Piniella came out to get him in the seventh but it was the right move as the Cubs went onto win the game. Is it a little too late however?

After winning four straight games, the Cubs have now lost three straight after being swept by the Detroit Tigers in their three game series. On Thursday, Ted Lilly gave up ten hits, two home runs and six runs over just six innings at the Tigers beat the Cubs 6-5. The team is struggling once again…

Kevin Gregg blows his third save of the season as the Cubs lose 5-4 to the Detroit Tigers. Ryan Raburn took Gregg deep for a game winning two run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Gregg is not capable of being the everyday closer for the Chicago Cubs in my opinion but what other choices do they have right now?

It was another wild day at Wrigley Field where the Cubs won the game in their final at bat as Andres Blanco scored on a wild pitcher by former Cubs Kerry Wood. This was the fourth time this home stand that the Cubs won in their final at bat. Things are turning around on the Northside Cubs fans!
