Cubs 10 Mets 1: For the first time this year, John Maine started, but the Mets didn’t win. Maine was shaky in the first two innings, giving up three runs, but settled down after that. The problem was, Carlos “don’t call me Victor” Zambrano showed the form that has made him one of the best pitchers in the league.

David Wright cut that in half with a home run that barely cleared the fence in right. In the......

It was billed as a battle between Randy Johnson and the future Randy Johnson, but it appears the future will have to wait for now. Pittsburgh starter, Oliver Perez, was knocked around, giving up six runs in five innings while walking five batters. Randy Johnson was dominant going the distance while giving up only a run and striking out eleven in the 6-1 victory. Hideki Matsui got the scoring started with a home run in......
