9/2 Lineup & roster move
Lou Piniella decided to give a few of the regulars a day off Wednesday, so no Aramis Ramirez, no Ryan Theriot and no Alfonso Soriano in the lineup. Also, the Cubs activated right-handed pitcher David Patton from the disabled list, and he was available. Patton had been on the DL since July 6 with a right groin strain. He was able to pitch back to back days Saturday and Sunday for Triple-A Iowa, and said he’s feeling 100 percent healthy.
Here’s the lineup:
CF Fukudome
SS Blanco
1B Lee
RF Bradley
LF Fox
2B Fontenot
3B Baker
C Hill
P Lilly
