B1 — Alzolay off to bad start. Following leadoff single w/ error by Almora, Alzolay gives up walk & then gives up RBI single to Marte. Homer machine Bell then makes things worse with a 3-run bomb to right-center.

T4 — After having his batting helmet fly off, Almora seems to come off the bag at 3B. Pirates third baseman keeps his glove on Almora for the out. Almora not happy with the call. Cubs don't challenge. Meanwhile, 2 runs score on bases-loaded single by Caratini. Cubs have new life.

T4 — Things really interesting now. Brach (yes, the reliever) hits an RBI single up the middle to score Caratini after HBP. It appears that Williams is losing it on the mound. Pirates challenging the call, though.

B8 — After Maddon promised last week that Kimbrel would only appear in close games in the 9th inning or later, he appears with the Cubs trailing by 10 in the 8th. He gives up a solo bomb in the 1st AB. Guess it's better to use him than tax another middle reliever further. Thankfully, the Cubs will have several off days in July, which the bullpen will appreciate.

B8 — Kimbrel gives up another homer (he also nearly gave up a homer on a double off the top of the wall). Bell goes yard for the 3rd time tonight. What a year he is having. Undoubtedly, this is the most embarrassing performance of the year for the Cubs. Will likely be one of the most lopsided losses of Maddon's career.
