Anyone see that Zambrano gave up a 2-run HR Before an out?

Dunn allegedly took a new approach in spring training this year, looking more at contact. He hit .400, I believe.

Now, he's on pace for 324 homeruns! All against Carlos Zambrano!

Will Z hit 100 pitches today?

Bases chucked with one out in the fifth. Z still in the game, Hatteberg at the plate.

EDIT: Walks in a run. Another in on a sac fly.

I don't even know why we pitch Zambrano on Opening Days. He's overly excited and his stuff goes all over the place. This is his 3rd opening day start and he hasn't made it 6 innings in any of them.

What would his reaction be if he got passed over for Ted Lilly? Probably not great.

He should fare well in the playoffs, if he's this excited about opening day....

The Cubs' last inning at bat was awful. Harang threw a whopping six pitches. LOL.

I didn't realize Z could not be overly excited. When did this supposedly occur?

Yeah, they should have started someone with a lower OEORP.
