CUBS WIN CUBS WIN

On saturday May 10th, Abbey and myself travelled to Wrigley Field to watch my beloved Cubs battle the Arizona Diamonbacks. Arizona swept us out of the playoffs last season, so the Cubbies were definitely looking forward to this series. It was a 6 run 7th inning that led to a 7-2 Cubs victory that gave them back to back wins in the series and are trying for the sweep tomorrow. Alfonso Soriano had a big day as he was 4 for 5, as he slowly begins to bring that average back up to where it should be. New Japanese sensation Kosoke Fukudome also added a 2 run homer in the 7th to put the game more out of reach. This guy is a fan favorite. They went nuts everytime he stepped up to the plate and the bleacher bums cheer him like crazy as he heads out to right field. It was a beautiful day and we had great seats. Lou Pinella did not throw one tantrum the entire day and the Cubs get another one in the win column. Below are some pictures from the game and I am trying to get a video up as well, but having troubles thus far. Go Cubs Go! Ok here here is the video! The quality isnt great, but you get to hear the go cubs go song so that is the most important thing.
