I was very, very surprised that nobody got ejected when Moreland charged the mound in the 2nd game of the double-header. I was under the impression that both teams were under the warning for today`s game, so there should have been an ejection when Bobby D got beaned. I guess Lee Smith hit a Met later in the game, and both he and Frey got the heave-ho. The brushback pitch is one thing, but throwing at a hitter is really going too far. But the final line is the Cubs SWEPT the Mets and now have a 4 1/2 game lead. It`s now on to Montreal for a 4 game series with the Expos. I`ll be up there with them, along with a lot of other Cub fans. Hope to come back to the Windy City with a few more Cub victories. Tom O`Connor
