Theyre killing me.Finally, after 10 innings and a rain delay, the Cubs rallied to take the lead and held off the last bid for a Cleveland rally. Williams, a Cubs W flag draped on his fold-out chair, said his celebration was subdued.I just kind of said `We did it, like I had anything to do with it, he said. I know how much he would have enjoyed it.As he headed back to his home in Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina, Williams said he would watch a recording of the game.

NSWs paltry score left South Australia with only 121 to get. But NSWs bowlers showed tremendous fight, led by Charles Stobo to take out eight SA wickets. However, Jake Lehmann held his nerve with an unbeaten 47 to help his team scrape through. The result did nothing to alter either teams position on the table, though, as SA remained on second, with their opponents on third.NSW started the day on 1 for 15, leading by 48. Sayers trapped Kurtis Patterson lbw in the third over of the day to set the tone for the slide. Soon, NSW were reeling at 4 for 22.

That became 5 for 49 before Lehmann dominated a sixth-wicket stand of 33 with wicketkeeper Alex Carey. Mennie and Richardson made brief but valuable contributions as the match continued to swing either way before Lehmann pinged a six and a single off Nathan Lyon to seal the match.Stobo finished with 4 for 46, Lyon took 2 for 43, while opening bowler Harry Conway finished with one wicket.
