Win Big, Win Small
The Cubs won two high scoring games to start the series against the Pirates, 12-3 and 14-9. This afternoon, runs were scarce, but the Cubs managed to score all of them.
Zach Duke gave up two in the seventh. He got into trouble, giving up a single and double to start the inning, but then recorded three straight outs. Unfortunately, the first two advanced the runners and the Cubs win the game 2-0. Jason Marquis pitched seven innings without walking a batter for the win. The Cubs are 4-4 this month in games in which teams scored a combined five runs or less.
