77

Thank you Mark Derosa. D-ro had a huge night, and that grand slam in the 8th capped it off. We needed to get off that 4-game losing streak.

Let's all send our well wishes out to Aramis Ramirez. News agencies are announcing the expected birth of his new baby. Let's hope everything goes well, and we shall see the proud papa on Thursday.

Finally, we just want to remind all of you Cubs fans out there to make your voice heard and vote...for your favorite players, of course. This is the last day to vote for the Cubs in the MLB All-Star race. Kosuke Fukudome is still winning but we have a Brewer hot on his tail. You can vote up to 25 times, so please use your finger wisely.

How The Number Works

The Chicago Cubs Magic Number is derived by the following equation: Total Number of Games + 1 - Wins by the Cubs - Losses by Best Opponent.

The Magic Number is affected by one of two events, a Cubs win or the best opponent losing. The number is 163 at the beginning of the season. When the number hits 0, the Cubs have clinched the NL Central and are in the PLAYOFFS!

This site represents the Magic Number for clinching the National League Central Division . If the Wild Card becomes relevant for getting into the post season, this site may contain both. In that case, the Wild Card number will clearly be denote.

Shoot an email to 2009@cubsmagicnumber.com with comments and suggestions. Also, drop a Cubs theme'd photo with a story. It may be posted during future number updates.
