Cubs Lose to Marlins, Brewers Move Up

The Cubs had another tough time with the Florida Marlins yesterday, losing 3-2 after 12 innings. The Cubs have only beat the Marlins once out of 13 games. It also continues a bit of a slump for the Cubbies, who have a 3-7 record for their last ten games, allowing the Milwaukee Brewers to move up to tie the Cubs for first place in the National League Central. Fans at Wrigley yesterday were also treated to manager Lou Piniella and coach Matt Sinatro getting ejected from the game after arguing a first base call with umpire Rob Drake.
The Cubs will face the Marlins again this afternoon. [Trib, photo by JRPMS]
