Kyle Hendricks had the fastball sitting 87-88 and was pulling the string on the change, which was good. But Lucas Giolito was also mixing speeds and locating well, which was bad.
Kyle Schwarber absolutely obliterated a double into the oppo gap, Victor Caratini put the Cubs on the board with a solo shot, and Cael Brockmeyer — who is freakishly tall for a catcher — blasted a homer to tie the game. Yes, I know that’s out of order. I also know that highlighting a double is weird.
Why the Cubs Tied
Well, they scored as many runs as the Sox.
