Game 4: Astros 4 Cubs 3

Fox Sports Scoring Summary:

Top of 4th

Bottom of 7th

CHC- Soto singled to left, Ramirez scored, Fukudome scored. (TIE 2-2)

Top of 8th

Bottom of 9th

CHC- DeRosa homered to left on a 1-0 count (HOU 4-3)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What I saw: Rich Hill pitched a pretty good 6 innings only giving up 2 runs, but he got out of jams. Hill got no run support (got little last year). Jon Lieber got the loss which he didn't deserve do to the groundball error by Mark DeRosa and the misplay in the outfield by Alfonso Soriano. Rough start to the season. The Astros are (2-3) and the Cubs are (1-3).

My MVP: J.R. Towles (HOU)
