Derrick Lee 4-4 With a HR; Fukudome Double Gives Cubs Lead

Lee has a homer to his credit which he hit in the 3rd, scored in the 6th, and hit an RBI single in the 7th to even things up. Kosuke Fukudome's 2-RBI in the 7th gave the Cubs their first lead of the game at 7-5, scoring Lee. Mark DeRosa then plated Fukudome to give the Cubs an 8-5 lead.

Lee, who I expect to have a huge comeback season, so to speak, is 4-4 so far, and Fukudome continues to get Cub fans and his fantasy owners excited.

Roy Oswalt started strong for Houston, but finished his day giving up 10 hits, 1 walk and 5 earned runs in 6.2 innings. Oswalt didn't even register a strikeout.

Ouch. Another guy we have said to avoid.

IN PROGRESS: TOP 8th HOU 5 CHI 8

You forgot to mention Oswalt's strikeout total. ZERO. Wow.
