We're sticking with Chicago for today's Caption This non-contest. Those who like the facts should know that the picture depicts Cubs Alfonso Soriano (left), Mark DeRosa (front) and Reed Johnson celebrating Tuesday night's 9-6 win over the Padres.
Please submit a sample caption in the comments section. I'll post some choice cuts this evening.
(UPDATED)
After this week's second very successful Cap This, we're going once again with a Sweet 16 of selections. Man, somebody must be picking great pictures:

The Cub's defense got a lot better when they signed Siamese triplets.

Enjoying the first win to happen at Petco Park this year, the Cubs players quickly realize most of the fans were cheering for them anyway.

If that is the way they play defense, no wonder it's been 100 years.
