The Cubs completed their three-game sweep of the Reds – winning 5-2 on Sunday afternoon. This was the Cubs first sweep of the Reds at Wrigley Field since May 22-24, 2001 (I attended one of those games on May 22, 2001).

Rich Harden nearly pitched six perfect innings and earned his first Wrigley Field day game win since August 24, 2008. His only mistake came with two outs in the first inning when he gave up a solo home run to Joey Votto.

Pre Game Dining
The Ultimate Sports Wife and I decided to eat brunch at The Stretch again. The food is good and a few dollars cheaper than other brunch places in the area. On Sunday’s they have specials of $15 buckets of beer and $5 32-ounce Bloody Marys.
