The Cubs entered Sunday trying to win their series against a struggling Marlins team. Unfortunately, Chicago could not take advantage of numerous golden scoring opportunities and Miami got the win and split the series.
Kyle Hendricks looked better early on but surrendered a long solo home run to Jesús Sánchez in the top of the 2nd inning. The Cubs got the run back in the bottom of the frame on an RBI single from the red-hot Nico Hoerner.
Miami jumped all over Hendricks in the top of the 4th with a series of singles to score three runs.
