Pie Connects
Felix Pie, off to a dismal start, picked up his first extra-base hit tonight. He hit a three-run homer in the eighth to cap a five run innings and send the Cubs to a 7-1 victory.
It was a close game for seven innings as Maine pitched well through six, striking out six as he allowed just two runs. His only mistake was to Aramis Ramirez, who followed a Lee single with a two run shot. That was all the Cubs really needed as Zambrano held the Mets to one run over seven innings. Carlos's ERA drops to 2.57, and Marmol and Wood combine to throw two perfect innings to ice the game. Only the Diamondbacks own a better record than the Cubs in the majors.
