Trust in Ollie.

With what looks like Texas beating Houston, a win tonight would put a game behind us up from the cellar. With 5 more days to spend in the Windy City, the Buccos need to get a win tonight, and to do that will need more than two lousy singles. The Cubbies are reeling right now, and with some momentum, the Buccos could do some damage early next week. But first they have to get this interleague monkey off their back, and lefty Clayton Richard is coming off a pretty solid start his last time out in Canada. Uh-oh. GO BUCCOS!

8 Days until my Haj (virgin visit to the best ballpark in America): Looking ahead a week, the matchup could be an elite matchup of #5 starters, Jeff Karstens vs Felipe Paulino next Saturday night vs Houston ... should be more than just these fireworks!
