Wowwwwwww, Cubs 8- Cardinals 4

What can I say about that game? Unbelievable. This game might have described the Cubs season in full so far. Poor start, work their way back in, climb over the .500 mark with a bang, lose the lead (thanks to a bogus call) and then pull a WTF moment that makes you actually think this team has a chance for the playoffs.

Highlight: If you don't know what it is, I guess you're not a Cub fan.

Lowlight: Phil Cuzzi strikes back with his bad behind the plate umpiring Friday by prolonging the game tonight. Luna was OUT at second, even if Joe Morgan says that "the tie goes to the runner." There was not tie, Luna was OUT. And there is no rule, "the tie goes to the runner." Look it up. Umpires get paid to make decisions on these types of plate. If you break time down to infinity, there is no possible way that two things happen at the exact same time.

Injury Update: Wood looks to be headed to the DL for sure, although his arm is looking better according to the trainer. Don't believe Dusty though. The surgery that Wood would have is way different from Morris's. Wood's surgery would be rotator cuff, not labral tear, although you can do both at the same time. Nomar will be in Peoria this week. Neifi did terrfic in one AB tonight, but I can't wait for Nomar to get back.

Go Cubs.
