Chicago Bears QB Rex Grossman is going to be a busy guy at this afternoon's Cubs-Cardinals game. Grossman will be throwing out the ceremonial first pitch and singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the 7th inning stretch. Given the rash of injuries to the Cubs pitching staff this season, Bears brass must be nervous about their field general taking the mound at Wrigley.

After his first pitch, Grossman will be turning the ball over to Mark Prior -- making his second start following his return from the DL.
