And the Cubs blew a 4-1 lead, then came back to take a 7-6 lead, then blew that with two outs and two strikes in the top of the ninth, eventually losing 10-7 in the tenth.
On the other hand, Marmol pitched a scoreless eighth inning (and was briefly in line for the win), so I'm sure he'll be reinstated as closer shortly...
