That one drilled left field way back there. Benson at the wall jumps. He can't come up with it for Nikko Horner at RB I double. The Cubs are on the board. It is one nothing.

Seu Suzuki struck out looking his first time towards third fair ball. That one is going to get down into the left field corner to score his hat parade is being weighed by Willie Harris and it is four, nothing just fair down. The third base line that last bounce back towards the field of play is what really made the ball fair and it was only by maybe the stitching on the baseball on the ground through the left side. That's a base hit Benson charge. He's got a good arm and say it will stop at third. They're at the corners and there's still nobody out. Patrick Wisdom batting infield stays back with men at 1st and 3rd and Wii drives that one out to left center that's going to touch down and it will bang off the wall in to score.

Watch kyle Hendrich here a moment of regret that maybe he didn't go for that ball, but not to worry, kyle Dansby out there behind you to make another play. 10 of 10 down one out led La Cruz. Who is, he drives to left center Thez zips up to second Armstrong gathers first baserunner of the night. Opposite way double for de La Cruz. Can that be a spark and can any sense of offensive rhythm sit in to in the fourth inning up TJ Friedel, he grounded to first his first time up 3 to 2 throw to third tag safe and is saying , please check, they're going to challenge it. But that's a high risk play down six runs for the guy with power in the batter's box and talked about the arm of Christian Bethancourt. He got off a very strong throw. We're going to take another look at this one is over. De La Cruz cut down a third inning over at 1st and 2nd. Nobody out. Jake Fraley's at the plate and Fraley has two homers on the year, both on the road. He has not yet gone deep in gabp this year. Fly to right the first home run for Jake Fraley this year and the deficit cut in half. It's 63 doesn't take long to change the narrative in this game. Three run by the Viking Jake. He throw Armstrong's up there in the air down the right field line. Fraley has to play it on a bounce. This would be a spot run with the Cubs leading where he's going to be thinking about stealing pitches high throw to second into center field PC A will get up, scramble to third. He 20 for 20. It will go as a stolen base and an error that is craig Counsell has said he has been pretty much unstoppable on the bases, man. A third for Ian half with two down in the air centerfield. That's thinks he got it that one back and that is gone. He got it home run and it is 83 a tank to center field from the right side for the blast in Cincinnati. What else is? There should not be surprised 18 home run in this ballpark over the years and Cubs go up 8 to 3 and that will be the end of the night for Lalo.
