M3 — Nothing doing for either team through 2.5 innings. Pirates get runners on corners with 1 out in 3rd, but Quintana forces 2 straight outs to keep game scoreless.

M4 — Some great defense on display by Cubs in 4th. Quintana made great throw-over to get player caught in rundown. Then, Zobrist made great play on well-hit ball down RF line to prevent double from happening. Game still scoreless.

B4 — Unbelievable catch by Melky Cabrera in RF. Diving snow-cone grab robs Bryant.

B5 — Maddon ejected over questionable strike call. FWIW, ump's had a pitcher-friendly strike zone all night. Maddon essentially warned to not come out of dugout, but he did to make his point. 1st ejection for Joe this season.

E5 — After Maddon gets tossed, 2 straight outs for Cubs. 2 runners stranded in scoring position.

E6 — Strange situation. Baez seems to think that he fouled ball on his foot that pounded off dirt in batter's box & carried into fair territory. Baez chooses not to run & gets tagged out on unorthodox DP with Zobrist getting tagged out coming home.

B7 — Combo of Heyward & Descalso continues to pay dividends for Cubs. Heyward's double to shallow left (which was helped by defensive miscommunication by Pirates) leads to RBI single from Descalso. Cubs break scoreless tie.

B7 || Pirates 0, Cubs 1

B7 — Caratini stays hot with double in gap b/w right & center. Descalso scores with ease. Hit comes off Francisco Liriano. Longtime starter comes out of bullpen for Pirates.

B7 — Caratini is 8-14 this season. Outside of Heyward, maybe Cubs' top hitter so far this year, despite not being a regular starter.

T8 — Rain delay in Chicago. Early start time was intended to beat the rain. Really fast game, though, so that might not have been feasible. Lightning in the area causes delay. If the game is called, Cubs win.

M8 — Play resumes, & Pirates go scoreless again in 8th. 2-out double by Marte wasted.
