Lilly's sights set higher
The result gave the Cubs an even more important series victory. They took three of four in the first series of an 11-game homestand. Lilly improved to 5-1 with a 1.96 ERA at Wrigley Field.
''He's pitched exceedingly well at home, and his home ERA is outstanding,'' manager Lou Piniella said. ''We told him before the game [of his All-Star selection], and he went out and pitched like an All-Star.''
