The Reds' big innings came when they sent nine men to the plate in the first and seventh innings. Each rally yielded four runs. Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks lasted six innings and allowed five earned runs on seven hits, with two walks and nine strikeouts. Hendricks' first five batters of the game reached safely as Cincinnati sprinted to a 4-0 first-inning lead. Following a pair of infield hits and a walk that loaded the bases, Todd Frazier blooped a two-run double near the right-field line. Eugenio Suarez followed with a two-run double of his own to left field.
