Absolutly love Marlon Byrd. Probably the best move Hendry has made in a little while.

Nyjer Morgan bunts for a hit. (Oh well, he's on my fantasy team. Wouldn't mind a stolen bag and for Silva to wiggle out of trouble, either).

First trouble of the game for Silva. Kennedy grounds past short.

1st and 2nd, none out. Here comes Adam Dunn.

The wind is howling in. I don't think even Dunn could go yard tonight. Look for Silva to test him.

Silva walks Willingham. Morgan scores.

3-1 Cubs. Silva is keeping the ball around the plate. No need to worry. Nationals have just adjusted their approach the second time through the order.

Will Nievas grounds to Ramirez. 5-3 on the putout.

After 3 and a half. Cubs 3 Nats 2.

Silva had a bad luck inning. He gave up a cheap bunt single, and a couple soft liners, before walking in a runner and the other scoring on a short lineout to center.

Cubs bats better get going again. Lannan's pitch count is high; expect him to be out in the 5th and the Cubs can start attacking that lowly National 'pen.

Nothing's up with Silva. Bunt hit. 2 soft liner singles (wind howling in made them hits), and a borderline walk....He'll be fine.

Soriano up.

Cubs strand Colvin on 3rd. Backwards K to end the inning.

Silva back to the hill. 3-2 good guys.

Taveras slices what looks like a double into the RF well area, but Colvin flags it down. 1 away.

Silva gets another. Then Morgan gets another single. Followed by a slow weak dribbler through the hole between 1st and 3rd (a joke of a base hit).

1st and 3rd. 2 outs.

Guzman at the plate.

Guzman pops out to SS, Ryan Theriot. 3 down. Threat avoided.

3-2 Cubs after 4 and a half innings.

I'm out for now. Off of work. Take care, Cubbie fans.
