Marquis Mark and the Fukudome Bunch Win Again

By: T.R. Slyder, TRSlyder@yahoo.com


The Cubs kicked the Brewers' hiney again today. Ted Lilly took a no-hitter into the 7th, Kosuke Fukudome got a hit somehow (a home run, no less), Carlos Marmol looked strong out of the pen, Jason Marquis looked just as comfortable crapping the bed out of the bullpen as he does crapping the bed as a starter, and the Cubs' B-team held off the pesky Brewers in Milwonky.

I hope Lou's strategy of benching all of his marquee players doesn't leave them rusty for the playoffs, but other than that it looks like Captain Lou is keeping the Big Blue Train on the rails.
