Sunday was Kyle Hendricks’ best start of the year.
It still wasn’t too good.
Hendricks went four innings and allowed four runs in the Cubs’ 6-3 loss to the lowly Marlins to split the four-game series. In the second, Jesus Sanchez hit a 460-foot home run off Hendricks that landed over the center field batter’s eye. Then in the fourth, Miami scored three more times.
Hendricks was gone to start the fifth without getting a third chance at the Miami lineup. And if it comes time to decide whether Hendricks will continue getting chances in the rotation, his past accomplishments will only go so far.
