Shielding myself from the glare of the sun



Well... lesson learned, this is why you save after every game played. My computer froze in the eighth inning of my game after this one so I lost the results of that one and this game.

Unlike the previous "lost" game, this turns into a pitcher's duel from the get go between Kevin Tapani and Kevin Millwood as through five innings both teams have combined for only five hits and the Cubs account for one.

In the seventh inning we plate the only run of the game with a sacrifice fly and Kevin Tapani manages to skate through the eighth inning allowing only four hits throughout the entire game.

I call on Mel Rojas to close the door in the ninth. He comes in a man on fire striking out the first two batters and getting a fly out to centerfield to give us the thin 1-0 victory.

CHC 1 ATL 0

Game Ball goes to Kevin Tapani who gave us one of our finest pitching performances of the season with a game score of 75.
