Stu Redman lines out to left. Enrique Hernandez grounds out to 3rd. Dave Priestly grounds out to 2nd.

Bottom of the 1st: John Godfrey grounds out to 3rd. Jake Johnson flies out to left, Lebron Williams making a nice running catch. Al Soto lines a hit to right. Larry Menard flies out to right.

Bottom of the 4th: The hit by Al Soto in the 1st is the only base runner for either team so far until he leads off the 4th with a double to right center. With 1 out, Arturo Guerra hits a home run to left. 2 to 0, Cubs.

Top of the 5th: With 2 outs, Roger Aguilar lines a hit to right, our first base runner of the game. Tim DePriest draws a walk and Javy Fernandez lines a hit to left center and Aguilar scores without a throw. 2 to 1, Cubs.

Bottom of the 5th: Dave Priestly injures himself making a catch and has to come out of the game. It seems serious and the Burgermeister is mum. Lebron Williams moves to right and Frank Wiginton goes into play left.

Top of the 6th: With 2 outs, Frank Wiginton doubles down the left field line and Mark Parker follows with a triple to right center to tie the game at 2!

Bottom of the 8th: New Pitcher: RHP Ron Beckman. Jake Johnson leads off with a walk. Pinch-runner: Buck Katzman. He steals 2nd. With 2 outs, Arturo Guerra has a 3-0 count on him and I am hoping we'll just go ahead and walk him, but Beckman groves one and Guerra knocks it into center for a run-scoring hit. 3 to 2, Cubs. Tony Ramirez follows with a home run to left. 5 to 2, Cubs.
