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 home plate umpire immediately invoked the infield flamboyance rule.” (Tim in NY)

“One artist's rendition of Ronaldo's wild night.” (Midvalley)

“See, we CAN be pitchers AND belly-itchers.” (buddy&ozzy)

“This game is supposed to be played with bean bags.” (Martel)

“WE DON'T HAVE TO WEAR THE THONG ANYMORE!!!” (SDSportsGirl)

“Eeeek! A mouse!” (FGB)

“Chicago Cubs players participate in an early practice for the debut of synchronized baseball at the 2016 Olympics in Chicago.” (chirunner)

“In an effort to break the longest drought in baseball, the Cubs bring in Siamese triplets to cover center field.” (Gilgemesh, also mleonard)

“A perfect example of how real teammates are joined at the hip.” (rock chalk)

“Being outjumped by two white guys, Alfonso Soriano shows why the Dominican Republic doesn't have many representatives in the NBA.” (Uncle Ben)

“The Cubs equipment manager is fired after his failed experiment with Velcro uniforms.” (Kawalski)

“Three Cubbies find the grass still hot after snow was removed with a flame-thrower.” (manta)

“Lamest Mosh pit. Ever.” (Finsterbaby)

“SI Vault -- Many Cubs fans look back at this wildly unnecessary victory celebration over a fourth-place Padres team as the turning point in the Cubs dismal '08 season.” (CavemanHC6)

“Soriano and DeRosa check to see if Reed Johnson's hips do not, in fact, lie.” (Mark G)

“Yay, Kerry Wood didn't get hurt today!” (Jim Shorts, PE Instructor)

Baseball's Iggy shuffle seems to be taking off.

How many Cubbies does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

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

Put your whole body in, take your whole body out, put your whole body in, and you shake it all about...

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.

I like **** and I cannot lie.

June 4, 2008  04:05 PM ET

Do the Hustle.

A-Rod joins the Cubs

You put your left cheek in, you put your left cheek out . . .

This is what you call a marketing disaster for a shoe endorsement commercial.

June 4, 2008  04:06 PM ET

Good thing you guys don't play commando like Eric Byrnes.

June 4, 2008  04:06 PM ET

Johnson appears to have gotten the short end of the stick in this celebratory leap.

Cup check!

WE DON'T HAVE TO WEAR THE THONG ANYMORE!!!!

June 4, 2008  04:07 PM ET

"Damn, I guess white men can jump."

June 4, 2008  04:07 PM ET

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

June 4, 2008  04:07 PM ET

The good news is we can fly, but the bad news is we seem to have become magnatized.

June 4, 2008  04:07 PM ET

Cubs successfully execute the squeeze play.

Funny, I always thought Cerberus was a dog...
