Titanic HR puts S.F. in deep trouble;CUBS 5, GIANTS 2;Soriano’s shot sets tone for another bleak

Cubs left fielder Alfonso Soriano hit one of the longest homersever at AT&T Park on Tuesday night. It traveled so deep intothe bleachers in left-center, you half expected a large fist to popout of the Coke-bottle slide and pound the giant glove next door inanticipation of catching the ball. As a herd of bleacher creatures scrambled for the ball, or whatwas left of it, a lot of folks in these parts knew this game wasover, which is sad for the Giants , because Soriano's homer offRyan Vogelsong gave Chicago a 1-0 lead in the second inning.
