Game recap courtesy WAKI radio. Juan Pierre started the scoring with a bunt, a steal, one of his 4 on the day, a sac got him to 3rd and then he scored on a fly ball by a player who shouldn?t be playing. (Pause for this public service announcement, Michael Barrett blows goats.)
Jacque Jones followed in the 2nd with a homer, but Fernando Nieve did not hurt his chances today. He went 5.2 and only gave up the 2 runs. Your move Mr Buchholz.
Meanwhile the Astros had nothing doing against Zambrano. They scratched across one run. And by the time Howry came in for the 8th, it was the Astros who were relieved.
Immediately they take advantage, here?s how the Cubs recapper put it
?The Cubs led, 2-1, when reliever Bob Howry (2-2) gave up back-to-back singles to open the eighth. One batter later, the Cubs were unable to record an out on a potential double-play ball to first baseman Todd Walker. Walker made an errant throw to second that pulled Ronny Cedeno off the base. Ausmus then singled to right.? The Link
It was a 2 run single. Berkman thundered home from second for the go ahead run, beating a weak throw from short right.
