Cubs pitcher Kyle Hendricks had his start shortened by rain Saturday against the Orioles.
Hendricks allowed two runs on five hits over two innings. He struck out two and did not issue any walks. Hendricks was tagged for runs in both innings. In the first, he gave up two consecutive doubles, plating the first run. With two men on in the second, Hendricks gave up a run-scoring single. He was able to get through the rest of the inning without giving up any more runs. The game was delayed prior to the start of the third inning. Hendricks did not return.
Hendricks was in line for the win, but did not go five innings. He’ll take on the Cardinals in his next start.
