Back-to-back and come-from-behind

The Cubs rallied to win two very emotionally-charged games this week. The first was vs. the White Sox, and since they dropped the first game, winning the second was imperative. The Boys in Blue did win, but it was all still up in the air until the ninth.

Today's game was against the Cleveland Indians. Usually interleague games aren't don't interest me that much, but the Indians are another story altogether. For Kerry Wood returned to Wrigley Field for the first time this year, and I still can't get over him wearing a new uniform. Mark DeRosa is an Indian now, too. At one point the Cubs were behind 7-0. That would be the time I turned it off.

Oh, Gal of little faith!

This picture shows at least part of what I missed. The Cubs went from 7-2 in the eighth to 8-7 in the 10th. I went with this photo from the Sun-Times because it shows my current favorite Cub, the yummy Ryan Theriot, being congratulated by his teammates after "hitting the game-winning single."
