Cincinnati Reds (23-27) @ Chicago Cubs (29-20)

Tyler Mahle (1-5, 3.51) vs. Yu Darvish (2-3, 5.06)

Second edition of 3-game series. Cubs need a win to avoid dropping their second series in a little over a week to the Reds.

M1 — Darvish bailed out by some solid plays on liners in the OF. He gives up a couple singles but no runs in 1st.

M1 || Reds 0, Cubs 0

B1 — Bryant hits 1-out double but opts to try to go to 3rd on ensuing grounder to SS. Reds SS Iglesias does something you rarely see by chasing after Bryant & lunging to tag him out instead of firing to 1B for routine out.

B1 || Reds 0, Cubs 0

M2 — Darvish's early-inning woes continue. Barnhart jacks 2-run blast to give Reds early advantage.

B2 — Almora gets the Cubs on the board with a solo jack. 415-foot bomb with emphatic leg kick on the swing.

E3 — Rizzo gets HBP with 2 outs. Baez then works a walk. Heyward grounds out to end the inning after that.

B4 — Really, really high double by Rizzo practically gets caught in jet stream before coming down at the wall in right-center. Clutch 2-run double with 2 outs. 4-run inning for Cubs.

B4 || Reds 2, Cubs 5

B5 — Heyward takes his turn hitting a dinger. Wind playing a part today. Solo blast carries out beyond CF for leadoff blast.

T7 — Wind is making for some craziness at the warning track. J-Hey makes great leaping catch at the wall on towering fly. Darvish has now produced his longest start as a Cub.

M7 — Fans chant, "Yuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!" as Darvish fans Puig to go 3 up, 3 down in 7th. Yes, he's given up 5 runs, but, with the windy conditions factored in, this is one of Yu's best starts as a Cub.

T8 — Darvish comes back out for the 9th & wastes no time in giving up leadoff HR to Dietrich. Game now tied. Maddon must be trying to give the worn-out bullpen some rest today.

M8 — Caratini guns runner down during steal attempt in 8th. Russell applies tag. Cubs avoid giving up lead after Darvish exits. If Darvish ended on a high note & had his started nixed after the 7th, the Cubs might still have the lead.

B8 — Great call on a perfect bunt by Russell with a man on 1st & 1 out. No chance for Reds to get him or lead runner out on bunt down 3B line.

B8 — Tell me if you've heard this before: Bote comes up clutch. Lines sinker into left-center to plate Almora & send Russell to 3B. Cubs in front. Pitching change coming.

T9 — Chatwood in for the save opportunity. Cubs looking to avoid giving up lead in 9th like they did yesterday. Votto leading off 9th just like yesterday.

T9 — Smooth 3-6-1 double play as Rizzo fields grounder & fires to Baez at 2B. Baez then throws to Chatwood at 1B. Much-needed play for Cubs. Reds down to their last out with man on 3B.

F — Puig smacks game-ending fly ball to RF. Chatwood comes through with his 1st save as a Cub. High-flying game won on Bote's clutch double.
