The Cubs continued to show no ill effects from their four-day break as they completed a mini-sweep of Cleveland Wednesday. Kyle Hendricks followed up Jon Lester‘s quality start with one of his own and the offense gave more than enough support for an easy win.
The Cubs got several early runners on against starter Carlos Carrasco, but the only tally came on a laser solo homer off the bat of Anthony Rizzo in the 3rd. Hendricks breezed through the early innings with tons of weak contact.
