You cannot say you were not entertained during Saturday afternoon’s 6-0 Cubs win over the Reds.
We had home runs! We had outstanding starting pitching from Jose Quintana! We had good relief work! And, we had a bench-clearing incident to wrap up the day’s events.
Let’s start at the beginning. The Cubs didn’t score in the first inning and while Quintana got through the bottom of the frame scoreless, he gave up some hard-hit outs.
Check out the height on that one:

Jason Heyward homers (13): fly ball to CF (solo)
Hit: 395.
