Rich Harden made his Cubs debut in regular fashion. Well, regular for him. He struck out ten Giants in just five and a third innings of work, just dominating the strike zone. 66 of his 96 pitches were for strikes and he walked three batters. Giants managed to get five hits but could not score. Harden had to have impressed Cubs fans. He did not figure into the decision as the bullpen blew it but definitely made an impact and will continue to do so if healthy. Harden made a great first impression and settled Cubs fans doubt for at least a day.
