4/25/08 @ Nationals; L 3-5; (15-8)

For the third time this season, the Cubs have dropped two in a row. Wil Nieves hit a two run walk off homer in the bottom of the ninth to give the Nationals a win.

The play of the game may have been Reed Johnson's diving catch on the warning track. This guy is putting to rest the idea that he can't be an everyday centerfielder.

Ryan Dempster had a solid outing, the Cubs offense just didn't capitalize on their 8 hits, leaving 19 men on base. Most disappointing for me personally, was Fontenot striking out in the eighth. He is barely above the Mendoza line this year after I kept insisting he get more playing time.

Not much else to be said about this game. We still have plenty of time to break the franchise record for wins in April.
