Don't look now, but for the time being the Chicago Cubs are on the move. The Cubs have taken the first two in this series holding Arizona to a grand total of two runs. The win yesterday pushed the Cubs to over .500 at home and they have played very well of late posting an 11-4 record in their last 15 games. Matt Garza is likely auditioning for a contender from here to the trade deadline, so expect big efforts going forward. Trevor Cahill gets the ball for Arizona, but the last four times he has taken the mound opponents have accumulated 25 runs. The D-backs are playing down to the level of competition as they have taken the donut in their last seven at 0-7 vs. a losing team, while the Cubs continue to thrive at home vs. teams with a losing road record taking five straight. Play on Chicago.
