The Chicago Cubs have lost six straight games, but they are back at it again on Saturday afternoon and are hoping to break that streak against Mike Leake and the Cincinnati Reds. Dusty Baker has shuffled the Reds' lineup more often than network TV execs at NBC have toyed with theirs, but a 9-run outburst on Friday offered some relief to an otherwise inconsistent Cincinnati offense. As for the Cubs, they are still working to find their way with the bats and haven't scored more than four runs in a game since April 13 (the team's last victory).
