So- we ate Easter dinner with some folks from church and got home in the bottom of the 8th. We saw a couple of runs score and were amazed to see that Samardzija was still in the game. He entered the 9th with a 4-1 lead. After two outs, an error by Castro prompted a visit to the mound.
Jana had a fit of moral outrage... "it wasn't his fault". Dale seemed to agree and left him- to serve up a 2-run home run. Exit Samardzja- Marmol comes in with a 4-3 lead. He got the out he needed and the Cubs finally get a win. Glad to see Wrigley still has Steve Goodman cued for those rare W's.
The mound visit following an error occurred in the film "Sugar" that we watched last night involving a Dominican pitcher's difficulty in adapting to baseball in the states.
Cubs 4, Nationals 3 Cubs (1-2)
