08 CUBS LEAD SERIES 1-0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
After trailing 8-0 in the 5th inning the Chicago Cubs came from behind to stun the Go Go Sox and take the opening game of the crosstown series. Mordecai Brown wasnt near himself on this day as he allowed 8 runs in 4.2 innings pitches, Jim Landis drove in three including a bases loaded double.
Early Wynn had a shutout going before the floor fell in and led by Frank "Wildfire" Schulte the Cubs scored 5 in the 5th and 5 more in the 8th. This game will be a real gut check for the Sox, who couldnt believe they blew this one.
