Result:
WIN

It has been over three weeks since the Cubs have lost two in a row, and even longer since they have lost two in a row at home. Carlos Zambrano has become what he was expected to be at the beginning of the season, and suddenly leads the NL in wins with 11. His last eight starts have been about as dominating as it gets. He has worked 58 innings and allowed just 28 hits with opponents hitting just .158. His ERA has been 1.55, and he has struck-out 63. Zambrano adds yet another dimension when he pitches. He is hitting .267 with 2 HR's, so it is like having a DH for the Cubs. The Giants are dependant on Barry Bonds to supply the power, but Bonds has just three hits in the month of July. The Giants were 24-22 in late May, and have really fallen, going 15-30 in their last 45. The Cubs have been torrid, winning 24 of 36, and with Zambrano on the hill they take the series.
