The Cubs are leaving town? This was just getting interesting. A series growing tenser by the day nearly boiled over Sunday night with ESPN on hand to make it a primetime spectacle. It was wild at the beginning: Cubs pitcher Ted Lilly got ejected in the first inning for plunking Edgar Renteria in apparent retaliation for Tim Hudson hitting Alfonso Soriano the night before. And it was wild at the finish: The Braves rallied to score three runs in the eighth, with Willie Harris scoring the game-winner on a wild pitch. The Braves won the game 5-4, split the series 2-2 and got one last retaliatory stroke on the Cubs in back-to-back nights full of them.
