Just a few thoughts about the Cubs’ 9-3 loss to the Nationals Friday afternoon, and then on to the bigger topic of the day, the awful Players Weekend uniforms worn by both teams.
- Anibal Sanchez is a good pitcher. He’s never been quite this good, though, holding the Cubs to one hit and two walks over 8u2153 innings.
- Nicholas Castellanos prevented Sanchez from going into the ninth inning with a no-hitter with his fourth-inning single to left.
- Jon Lester... man, I don’t know what’s wrong with Jon.
