5/2 LaHair’s streak
Bryan LaHair homered to lead off the second inning Wednesday night, and now has reached base safely in 20 straight games. The last Cubs first baseman with a longer streak was Derrek Lee who did so in 21 straight games in 2009. LaHair has six homers, more than half of the Cubs’ total 10. It’s 87 degrees at Great American Ball Park. There could be more.

Pinch hitting for a pitcher who has thrown 61 pitches in 6 innings?!? He had a 2 hit shutout going. Samarddzija even had extra rest going in! ugh!
Whoops I thought I saw he was sending up a pinch hitter. Disregard that last comment.

Imagine LaHair’s streak if Quade was still managing and Hendry was still general managing….there wouldn’t be one.
