Jul 3 Lee hit two home runs and drove in a career-high seven runs to lead the Cubs to a 9-5 win over the Brewers on Thursday night.

Advice: Lee took a curtain call after his second homer, a grand slam that put the Cubs up 9-2 in the fourth inning. It was his 10th career slam. "Just some nights the game seems like it slows down a little bit and tonight was one of those nights," Lee said. Lee has driven in 16 runs in his last five home games, all Cubs wins. Thursday's victory was the opener of an 11-game homestand at Wrigley Field.

Jul 2 Lee homered twice and drove in seven runs in Thursday's win over Milwaukee.

Recommendation: Lee now has 14 home runs and seems to be undergoing a resurgence this year after a disappointing 2008. He has three homers and nine RBI in the last two games.
