Cueto bounces back

Johnny Cueto appears to be beyond his years in terms of pitching acumen. Tonight he looked solid in a Monday night start against the top run-producing team in baseball, the Chicago Cubs (189 R). After back-to-back rough outings against Houston and at St. Louis (Sliding Shorts attended the game at Busch and had nothing good to report except that his brother got an autograph from Johnny C! Smart move, brother!), Cueto's solid back at home. His line: 6 inn, 6 H, 3 ER, 8 K, 2 BB, 8 K. He recorded his 2nd Major League win.
