Baby Bears Arrive

The Cubs are 13-3 in their last 16 games, "...winners of seven of its last eight and eight straight road games. Florida, on the other hand, is 13-14 since July 18, with 18 of those games being decided by three runs or fewer.

"The Marlins do have one thing on their side, however: They've won 12 of their last 14 games against the Cubs."

Back to history; in their last 10 August 15 games the Marlins are 5-5 and the Cubs are 4-6. This year the Fish have a reasonably lousy 3-6 record in Friday home games, and the Cubs have an even lousier 2-7 record in Friday away games.

OOF!: Marlins had led 5-1, and when Gregg came in it was still 5-3. But the Cubs win 6-5. Fish now 3.5 games behind the NL East lead.
