NL Playoffs Round 1


Cubs vs Diamondbacks
Game 2
October 4
Pitching matchups:
Doug Davis (13-12)
starts for Arizona

Ted Lilly (15-8)
takes the mound for the Cubs
Game Time is again
at 9 pm
The two hurlers faced each other in August--   

Davis was the winner in a 3-1 duel
Cub fans like the
matchup anyway--
Lilly is 9-1 in games started
after a Cub loss!
2nd inning:
Geovany Soto puts the Cubs on the board,
drives a 2-run homer into the stands!
But Ted Lilly then puts 2 on and surrenders
3-run homer to Chris Young!
Lilly slams glove to ground in disgust!
Snakes go on to score another on triple!
Arizona adds to lead in 4th :
  • Ojeda bunts, seems to leave . . .
  • . . . baseline, but is ruled safe at first
  • A K and a BB, and then Stephen Drew . . .
  • . . . triples to make the score 6-2
  • Why does Soriano strike
    out
    on balls in the dirt?
    Why does Soriano swing
    at balls in the dirt?
    Three whiffs for the night!
  • In 5th, 3 Cub relievers give up 2 walks, an RBI single from
    Ojeda, and a squeeze bunt from Davis!
  • Cubs score 2 in 6th on pinch double from Ward!
  • Cubs put 2 on in 9th, Lee and Ramirez fan
  • Final score: Arizona 8, Cubs 4
  • Their pitcher knows how to bunt!
    How come ours doesn't? (Lilly bunted
    foul on 3 pitches in 2nd!)
    Cub fans wonder:
    When will the big
    guys start hitting?
