VIDEO: Robel Garcia Launches a Homer into McCovey Cove to Give Cubs an Early Lead
By Karl Rasmussen
Robel Garcia didn't let this game stay scoreless too long. The recently-promoted slugger launched a ball into the bay outside Oracle Park, and when it splashed down the Cubs had a 1-0 lead.
Ro, ro, ro your boat...

Shaun Anderson served up a meatball and Garcia repaid the favor by sending it into McCovey Cove.
