CHICAGO (AP) Mark Prior gave the Chicago Cubs a glimpse of exactly what they've been missing.

What he couldn't do all by himself was get them a victory.

Off the disabled list and on the mound for the first time this season, Prior retired the first 13 batters and pitched six stellar innings. But the Pittsburgh Pirates rallied for two runs in the ninth and a 2-1 victory Friday.

Prior was overpowering at times, allowing just two hits. He walked none and struck out eight.

Prior wound up with a no-decision when the Cubs' bullpen blew a 1-0 lead and Chicago lost for the eighth time in 11 games

A very smart gambler told me the cubbies are going to win it all this year. I m skeptical but they definetly have the tools.

The Cubs will be fine. They will get Gruzelanik (?) and Sosa back in the next week or so. Just let me know when their odds go to 10/1

I have under 92.5 wins so i am happy where they are right now (1 game over .500).
