PITTSBURGH — The possibility of a second Marcus Stroman complete game this season — maybe even a second shutout — tickled the imagination.
That’s how in command the Cubs’ ace was as the sixth inning ended Tuesday in a 4-0 win against the disappearing Pirates. Stroman had retired the last two batters of the fifth on a total of three pitches. Then he got Ke’Bryan Hayes, Jack Suwinski and Carlos Santana on two pitches each in the sixth.
