Alfonso Soriano News

Soriano’s season to date

With the Chicago Cubs through 61 games, with the baseball’s best record, the Chicago Cubs are enjoying the 2008 season. The Cubs sit at 39-22, for a .639 clip, which places them 3.5 games up on the St. Louis Cardinals, 6 on the Brewers, and 7.5 from the Astros. The Cardinals are tied with the Phillies for the second best record in the NL. In the AL Anaheim and Boston sit two back of the Cubs current clip.
