Game 2- The Exposing of Ted Lilly

This is Ted Lilly, according to most sources, the #2 pitcher for the Cubs, and a great pitcher.

I maintain that most experts are full of shit, and that Ted Lilly wilts for 2 years before having a good year (see what I did there... he wilts... nevermind). I am of the opinion that he sucks, and that last year was an anomaly. As proof. I present the first pitch he threw on the season to Rickie, who jacked it out of Wrigley.

As a side note, Cubs current owner Sam Zell is going to change the name of the hell hole that is Wrigley. I say go for it. Make some money Sammy. Who cares about tradition when you can sell the name to a rival gum company.

Anyway, the crew chased lilly in the 5th and scored some ticky tack runs throught the game to take it 8-2. Nothing really worth mentioning except that Jason Kendal had his 3rd multiple extra base hit game in 3 years. Good for him. Maybe he'll be an average NL catcher, which is still a .239 hitter.
