Here's how Corey did against the Houston Astros today, July 1:

5 at bats
2 hits
1 run
no RBI's
1 strikeout

Corey Patterson singled with one out in the Cubs' first against starter Pete Munro, advanced on a groundout and scored on Moises Alou's single, which ended an 0-for-8 mini-skid. The Cubs won 5-4 in the 10th with a homer by Sammy.

 

Also, in one inning, Corey was at first and Moises was up to bat, and the Astros' pitcher, David Weathers, kept throwing to first to try and get Corey out, but Corey kept making it back safely. Corey got Weathers so worried that he would steal second that Weathers ended up walking Moises and advancing Corey to second anyway:) Corey also made an awesome catch to end the Astros in the 9th inning while they were still tied 4-4. Good job Corey!:)
