Cubs 7, Indians 2: The Professor does it again

Kyle Hendricks has long been my favorite current Cub. He’s a throwback, in many ways, to pitchers of days gone by, winning without great velocity because he knows how to locate his pitches and induce weak contact. All together now:

Six more strong innings from Kyle, where he allowed seven hits and one run with zero walks, helped lead the Cubs to a 7-2 win over the Indians and a sweep of their brief two-game series.

In 26u2153 innings so far this year, Hendricks has walked two — and one of those was intentional.
