The Cubs kicked off their Cactus League schedule with a 12-6 romp over San Francisco as Theriot went 3-for-3 in the leadoff spot, Mike Fontenot and Felix Pie homered and Ryan Dempster pitched two innings in his first start in nearly five years.
But the big news was Fukudome's introduction to the majors, which featured a little bit of everything for the Japanese star.
Fukudome was hit in the back of his right shoulder by Giants starter Noah Lowry on the first pitch he saw in a Cubs uniform. He walked in the second and chopped a single over the third-base bag to score Theriot in a five-run third.
