SS Alex Gonzalez homered, doubled, and drove in four runs; he's 7 of 13 in his last three games. CF Corey Patterson, 2B Todd Walker, and C Michael Barrett also homered each. SP Carlos Zambrano allowed only one run and seven hits. Good game.
Cubs now have an 8-6 record and are in third place in the NL Central behind Houston (9-5) and Cincinnati (8-5).
Phils are in fourth place in the NL East with a 5-7 record. They can still turn it around. Doesn't take much at this, or any, point in the season, Warbler. Keep hope alive, m'man.
