      Cubs Cruise Past Diamondbacks

      Ted Lilly kept his glove on his hand this time. Lilly gave up another homer to Chris Young, but instead of throwing a tantrum the left-hander led the Chicago Cubs over Arizona 3-1 today in the first meeting between the teams since the Diamondbacks' sweep in last year's playoffs. Young homered off Lilly in Game 2 last October during Arizona's 8-4 win, prompting Lilly to slam his glove down. More »

      Aurilia's Homer Carries Giants

      The San Diego Padres are struggling so badly that they allowed only four hits to the San Francisco Giants, and still lost. Rich Aurilia homered off Chris Young in the seventh inning to keep Tim Lincecum perfect this season and give San Francisco a 1-0 win last night in another low-scoring game at Petco Park. The Padres have lost eight of nine. More »

      Wells Cut by Padres; May Hang It Up

      David Wells may have pitched his last game. The Padres released the 44-year-old left-hander yesterday to make room for Chris Young, who's coming off the disabled list. It's up to Wells now whether he'll retire or stay available and try to land a spot with another team. The boisterous Boomer hasn't shown any signs of mellowing; just last week commish Bud Selg fined him $5,000 for an argument with an ump More »
