I have to say, Dolis just plain makes me nervous as the closer.  He doesn't strike guys out, and his control can just go at any time. 

Sooner or later, you just get the feeling he's going to have a meltdown in a game we really want to win.  Hopefully it's not tonight.

And that has never ever ever happened to Kerry or Marmol?

I'd feel a lot better about Dolis here if the Cubs could add on.

LaHair Ks, but Castro steals second.  Come on, Soriano.

Soriano!  7-5 on an RBI single.

Ha!  Well when Marmol and Wood on top of their games, they get strikeouts. 

Pitchers who don't strike guys out and don't have great control are always at risk of having a blow up at just about any time.

I mean Dolis has more walks than strikeouts right now.  That's just asking for trouble eventually.

If the Cubs hang on, I'm sure that otto will come by tomorrow to congratulate us.

Braun leading off.  Best he can do is pull the Brewers to within 1 run.

Didn't realize how awful Axford has been this year.  His ERA is up to 6.10 after tonight.
