Day 3 - Chicago 7, Houston 6



"Hey! Hey!" Cubbies Win!. Todays game was the best thus far. We saw 4 homers, including a huge 3 run blast by Derek Lee to cap a 6 run inning. Wrigley Field is the oldest field in the major leagues and seeing its vintage layout with iron and steel stands along with the ivy covered walls you could easily close your eyes and envision the 1920's baseball. Cubs fans are so loyal and so focused on their team its amazing. More then 2 hours prior to the game the lines formed around the main gates and stretched in all directions.

To our amazement when the game ended the majority of the fans remained in their seats and sang some secret post win song that apparently the other 41,000 people knew. Good times had by all in this classic afternoon Cubs game.
