       Lynn unraveled real fast.. His mechanics went away... Than that
       terrible throw to first.. Then a fastball up.... Manager too
       slow to react

       Sac fly by Montero.  That probably would've been a homer later
       in the season.

       So he was Lance Lynn? He randomly loses his mojo... last year he
       had several strong 5 inning starts and the wheels would come off
       in the 6th.

       Good seventh inning for the Cubs.  Nice patient walk by Rizzo,
       followed by error by Lynn, moving him to second base. Then
       Castro coming through with the Cubs' first hit with RISP.  Then
       solid sac bunt by Coghlan followed by sac fly from Montero.
       Good fundamental play.  The one exception was Rizzo looking back
       over his shoulder on the overthrow when he should have been
       watching Gary Jones at 3B.

       It was interesting that Maddon went to Strop to pitch to the
       lefty Adams last inning when Ramirez had just pitched to one
       batter and gotten him out.  I wonder if Strop might be tabbed to
       face tough lefties when Coke has already pitched or is
       unavailable.

       That will happen when you only have 5 hits combined the entire
       game.

       HBP--not a walk (Rizzo walked in 4th inning).
       Of course, some fans in the stands boo when a home club guy gets
       hit but the HBP leading off inning is huge.
