OSS: Cy(le) Cobb makes an appearance

Three up:

  1. Kyle Hendricks extended his streak of excellent pitching, allowing just one run in eight innings, striking out seven. Hendricks led off the top of the ninth with his first walk of the game, which led to the pen finishing the game off. Even more impressively, Hendricks went 3-4 including a two-run double in the second inning that fell just shy of the warning track in dead center. He could easily have gone 4-4, as the lone out was a line drive that happened to be hit straight at the second baseman.
