Cubs win 16-2, take series


After getting shutout in the series opener and Kerry Wood pitching a two hit masterpiece to even up the series, the Cubs brought out the whoopin sticks and sent Dontrelle Mania to the showers. Ofcourse every sportscaster in the country is upset that the Marlins sent him back out their after the hour plus rain delay. Well funny thing it didnt hurt Zambrano too much......so they can stuff it on the most overhyped player in baseball at the moment.
Zambrano went 6 1/3 innings, struck out four and walked two. He also had three hits and two RBI at the plate today. Sammy Sosa, Trenadad Hubbard and Karros had 2 RBI each also. Hernandez and Gonzales had 3 RBI each.

NOTE: Sammy Sosa hit a 484 foot HR in the 8th inning. The longest ever at Pro Player Stadium.
