FANTASTIC!!!

"My" Cubs came back from a 5-1 deficit and Derrek Lee capped the comeback with a 2 out, 2 run homerun to lead "us" to an exhilarating 6-5 victory. 

Ryan Dempster continued his good season with a 1-2-3 9th for his 25th save in 27 opps.

And "we" needed it as both the Brewers and Cardinals completed their sweeps to continue to nip at "our" heels.
