Paul Maholm and the Cubs get a W against the Phillies, 5-1

The Cubs win game 1 of their 4 game series against the Philadelphia Phillies tonight.  Paul Maholm was excellent and earned his second straight win.  He allowed five hits and one run and didn't issue any walks and threw one strikeout during 6.1 innings pitched.

Tony Campana was fun to watch tonight as he reached safely on a bunt single and also had a stolen base.
