Soriano: 1-hole or hole in 1?
Published 4/30/2008 by BY CHRIS DE LUCA cdeluca@suntimes.com at Chicago Sun-Times :: Chicago Cubs ::
Chris De Luca: Alfonso Soriano braved the icy winds Tuesday at Wrigley Field to undergo the last major test on his strained right calf and was cleared for leadoff. So when Soriano comes off the disabled list Thursday for the finale of a three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers, he will go right back into the leadoff spot in the Cubs' lineup.
