Try not giving up so many hits next time All good things must come to an end, including really fun 5-game win streaks that pull you within half a game of first. This is about all you need to know: Derrek Lee hit a solo homer and an RBI double for the Cubs. Rich Harden (4-2), who took the loss, gave up four runs on six hits over six innings while striking out seven. The loss ended his personal win streak at four.

Oh, and believe it or not, Derrek Lee, who OBVIOUSLY has been listening to the LOHO podcasts (wherein we discuss replacing him with Hufflepuff on a weekly basis), went 5-4 today.
