After the 8-5 win verses the Newton Royals the Cubs sat tied for 2nd place with the Delta Tigers with one game remaining.

CUBS TAKE ONE IN BURNABY
June 24, 2008
It was a total team effort for the Cubs on Sunday as they dumped the Mathers Division leaders Burnaby Yankees 7-4. The Cubs had 13 hits in the 9 inning game 5 which were for extra bases. The large dementions of Robert Burnaby park didn't seem to bother the Cubs as Brent Durie and Ken Enns both went deep into the trees. Colin Dawes John Riediger and Brent Durie were also effective on the mound surrendering only 6 hits walking only 3 and striking out 13. The next game is back at home for the Cubs as they take on the defending league champions Richmond Black Sox. Game time 11:00am.
CUBS BEAT CUBS
June 15, 2008
Errors seemed to be the order of the day for the Cubs on Sunday. Plays in which the Cubs made look effortless earlier in the season now seems to be the biggest hurdle to over come. Six errors were commited all in which Newton turned into unearned runs. On a brighter note the Cubs pounded out 14 hits in the 12-8 defeat. The Cubs record now drops to 6-3. Next game is at Robert Burnaby park as the Cubs look to break out of this funk as they take on the Yankees. Game time 5:00pm
CUBS CAN'T DODGE DELTA

What can I say. WE LOST!!! @#$%
REDEMPTION
June 1, 2008
After getting knocked out of the playoffs by the Rockies in the 2nd round last year, the Cubs were looking to redeem themselves on Sunday. It started a little rough as the Rockies came out swinging scoring 3 runs in the 1st while the Cubs didn't help themselves by commiting 3 errors in the inning. After the 1st inning though it was all Cubs. Chilliwack collected 10 hits over the 9 inning game and took advantage of Newton errors. Brent Durie came in to close the game down in the 6th inning and was lights out. Durie struck out 6 only allowed 1 base on balls and didn't surrender any runs. When all was said and done on Sunday the Cubs walked away with a 10-3 win bringing their season record to 6-1 and remain in first place in the Mathers division.
OUCH!!!!
May 26, 2008
The baseball gods were frowning on the Cubs this Sunday. First coach Emery forgot the scorebook, then Robin Westie forgot the wiffle balls to warm up with, then to top it all off lead off hitter Galen Johnston forgot his ball pants. Yes folks his F#@!ing pants. With Johnston being one of the Cubs hottest hitters the Cubs scrammbled to find replacement pants. Josh Stroup offered to give up his pants to help the team but the difference in waist size seemed to be too much to overcome. Also the Cubs as a team seemed to forget their bats in Chilliwack as they only managed 4 hits against Aldergrove and commited more errors in this one game than they had made all year thus far. Full credit to Giant pitchers as they caused the Cubs to ground out 13 times. Maybe the 2 week break was too long for the Cubs as timing looked a little off. The Cubs look to bounce back next week against the Newton Rockies as the Cubs travel back home. Game time 11:00am
JUST ANOTHER VICTIM
May 11, 2008
The Langley Padres came to Chilliwack Sunday morning looking to improve their record to 3-2. Unfortunately for them they ran into the #1 team in the LMBA. The Chilliwack Cubs. Cubs pitching once again toyed with opposing batters striking out 12 walking only 3 and allowing 7 hits over the 9 inning game. Cubs bats remained hot collecting 12 hits on their way to the 9-2 victory. The Cubs continue to play solid baseball from lights out pitching from Colin Dawes and Todd Boulanger defensive gems from Pearce Rutley and Rob Kennedy and timely hitting from all players. The Cubs remain on top the LMBA with a 5-0 record. Next game is away May 25th against the rival Aldergrove Giants starting at 6:00pm as the Cubs look to keep the streak alive and improve to a perfect 6-0.
