Bryant misplays a flyball down the RF line leading off the 4th. Some bad luck for Darvish so far today.

Based on exit velocity and lunch angle, the leadoff doubles the last two innings are hits 7% and 4% of the time.

Darvish has suddenly stopped throwing strikes. Bases loaded, 1 out for Wacha.

Wacha knocks in two. 4-1. Sloppy defense and ball throwing hurts the Cubs again.

Carpenter hit, 5-1. This one fell apart quickly.

Wacha is one of the worst hitting pitchers in baseball.

.077 lifetime BA in 260 career PAs. That was the second extra-base hit if his career. Career slugging under .100 before today.

I don't think I've ever seen a worse major league "hitter" than Yu Darvish.

Heyward hits for Descalso for some reason. Descalso hurt?

Wacha's first hit was pure luck, though. He bounced a ball down the third base line with a 73 mph exit velocity, and Bote was playing pretty far off the line. That ball is an easy out almost all the time.

Four pitch walk to the first batter Darvish faces. Pull him now.

After a mound visit, ball 6. Ball 7 and wild pitch. Brutal.
