Derrek Lee took a curtain call after his second homer, a grand slam that gave him a career-high seven RBIs on a night when the baseball seemed to be coming at a different speed.

"Just some nights the game seems like it slows down a little bit and tonight was one of those nights," Lee said after leading the Chicago Cubs to a 9-5 win over the Milwaukee Brewers in the opener of an 11-game homestand.

The Cubs also got homers from Geovany Soto and Jake Fox as their erratic offense showed some spark against Brewers starter Seth McClung and reliever Chris Smith.
