Mike Fontenot does not have far to go after being traded by the Cubs two hours before today’s game with the Giants: he just grabs his belongings and walks across the hallway to the home clubhouse at AT&T Park. The Cubs receive Class-A OF Evan Crawford in return for the veteran infielder. The Giants go on to beat the Cubs, 5 – 4, as Pat Burrell hits a decisive homer in the 8th inning.
