German Marquez rebounds but Rockies lose, 2-1, to Cubs

German Marquez rebounded and Ryan McMahon homered.

But the “Friendly Confines” were decided unfriendly for the road-challenged Rockies in a 2-1 loss to the Cubs on Friday afternoon at Wrigley Field.

Cubs right-hander Marquez Stroman, who was winless at home entering Friday’s game, took a no-hitter into the sixth inning before McMahon hit a two-out solo homer to center.

Stroman, who entered the game 0-5 with a 7.11 ERA at Wrigley — the highest home ERA in the majors for pitchers with at least nine starts — dominated the Rockies. He pitched seven innings, allowing three hits, striking out five and walking two.
