After watching another strong outing ruined by a blown save and loss, Cubs starter Carlos Zambrano vented on Sunday. He called the Cubs "embarrassing" and a "Triple-A team" and criticized closer Carlos Marmol's pitch selection on the tying hit in the ninth. It all began with an innocuous media question about Albert Pujols' second walk-off homer against the Cubs in as many days. "The problem wasn't Pujols," Zambrano said. "The problem was the previous at-bat [in the ninth]. We should know better than this. We played like a Triple-A team. "This is embarrassing," he added, "embarrassing for the team, for the owners, embarrassing for the fans. Embarrassing. That's the word here for this team."
