Padres 5, Cubs 4 (4/17/15)

OSS: Inconsistent umpiring and inability to execute despite it sinks the Cubs.

Three up:

1. I take back anything bad I’ve said about Herrera. He was on third base in the third inning and the Padres had a big shift on for Rizzo, leaving him uncovered at 3b. He took some huge leads, which led to Shields threatening to run over to pick him off for lack of anything better to do and got in his head enough to score on a wild pitch.

2. Kris Bryant may have had a tough day at the plate, but he sure brought his glove.
