Cubs blow out the Padres 12 - 4

4/17/2007 7:20 AM

We already know the Cubs have the hit squad to get the job done. As there were many scoring combinations in this game. Barrett, DeRosa and Floyd hit home runs. Theriot was only 1 for 5 but scored a run. Derrek Lee was 2 for 2 and scored two runs and an RBI. Murton was 2 for 4 and scored a run and 2 RBIs.

Besides all the hits and runs scored, the thing that I found interesting is Marquis pitched 6 innings and only gave up 3 hits and 1 run. He struck out 5 but walked 4. This was a sign of things to come for Jason.

Bad Notes: Soriano pulled a hamstring and is now day to day. Jones will probably move to center and Theriot will probably get more playing time. Ohman is still struggling as he gave up the 3 other runs in 1 inning of work. Hopefully Will can get his stuff back he is very dependable in the bull pen.
