Triple Crown Battle
Derrek Lee and Albert Pujols are going head-to-head in the triple crown race today. Both have a home run and multiple RBI. Pujols' two RBI (so far) tie him for the NL lead with Carlos Lee. Derrek is now three home runs behind Andruw Jones for the NL lead, and his hit leaves him at a .348 BA for the NL lead. The Cubs lead 7-4 in the 5th.
Update: Lee finishes with two home runs on the day and four RBI. He now leads Pujols by 10 points in the batting race. However, if Cabrera has a big night he could end up in the NL lead for the batting title.
