WASHINGTON — Cubs Center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong sprinted to left field to cut off infielder Jose Tena’s line drive in the sixth inning to leadoff the sixth inning.
As he scooped the ball, Crow-Armstrong turned and rifled a throw toward second baseman Nico Hoerner to get the out at second.
Following the out, shortstop CJ Abrams singled on a groundball to center field. Abrams, who has stolen 27 bases and is in the 88th percentile for sprint speed, attempted to steal but was gunned down by catcher Christian Bethancourt.
