So Harden had a great start today for the Cubs. 5 1/3 innings with 96 pitches. 5 hits, no runs and 10 strikeouts. Not too bad of a debut for the Cubbies. I'm just mad that Marmol almost blew the game for us but Shawn Marshall came through and so did Reed Johnson's single to allow Theriot to score the game winner in 11.

I had to stop watching the Cubs game a little before Harden left, and I think they were ahead 7-0 already, so when I heard that the Cubs only won it in the 11th and Harden didn't get the win, I was a bit bummed for him. Still, it was a good start!
