The Curse of Wrigley Field

Well, this wasn’t a good start.  Carlos Zambrano pitched two shutout innings to open things up for the Cubs but then the A’s rattled off 15 runs in the next seven innings.  Garza gave up five of those while Justin Berg gave up seven.  Not a good start and thankfully it doesn’t count.

The offense did do some damage though.  Alfonso Soriano went three for three with a pair of RBIs.  Marlon Byrd went two for three with a run and an RBI while Starlin Castro went two for three with a run.

Randy Wells gets the start today against the Brewers. Game time is 3:05.  Also worth noting is single game Cubs tickets are on sale.  I’d like to come in for a weekend series but I have to see what’s available and when.
