Schierholtz with a sac fly to deep left. No play for Brown. Rizzo up to second and Kalish scores the second run of the first inning!

2-0 Good Guys.

Finally a big inning. Good to see Castro hitting again

More great situational hitting by the Cubs. Valbuena trots home on another sac fly -- 4-0 Northside!

Need to get more, may need it with Villanueva pitching

That inning could've gotten ugly.... Carlos V got out of the jam unscathed. 4-0 Cubs.

Bonifacio with the nice double play. Great or lucky positioning

Not a lot of hits for the Cubs today, but they've done the little things to produce runs and once again, their pitching has kept them in a position to win. This has been the best all-around game so far. Still not perfect, the pick off and Castro error are a reminder that young teams have a lot of gaffs.

No play for Rollins as Valbuena shoots a grounder off Burnett's glove and the Cubs plate another run -- 5-1!

Veras gives up the first walk by Cubs pitching today -- a good sign.

#Cubs fans can handle growing pains of young talent in rebuild. Veras isn't that. Albatross that steals joy & causes needless anxiety

Veras's cruveball isn't coming close to the outside corner. Having to sweat an 8-2 game fuckin' sucks.

I should quit watching the games. First one I miss and it looks like they do indeed know how to play baseball. Good job, boys!

I went through that jinx in 2008 and didn't watch games. I was working afternoons and following the team close and that season snuck up on me.
