Cubs withstand homer barrage
Rest does Bonds good
After missing three starts, Barry Bonds returned to the lineup and wasted no time, powering the first pitch he saw for his 752nd homer. He later added a two-run single and another homer, a three-run shot, but the Giants couldn't erase the deficit caused by the three errors they committed in the first.

Series at a glance:
Big first holds up
Though they saw the Giants come close to tying the game, the Cubs made the most of a four-run first inning and held on for their sixth series win in the last seven. Ted Lilly tallied his 10th win, and three Cubs notched at least three hits.
