A blown save cost Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks a victory over Colorado on Monday night. But he really didn't deserve it anyway.
Hendricks had been the beneficiary of a six-run fourth inning. He allowed four runs on seven hits in five innings with three walks and four strikeouts.
He fell behind 4-0 on a two-run homer by torrid Carlos Gonzalez in the third and two-run single by DJ LeMahieu in the fourth. He required 104 pitches to get through five.
Hendricks has surrendered nine runs in his last 11 innings and hasn't earned a win since July 5.
