A two-run double and three-run homer, all with two out in the fourth, were the difference in a 6-5 loss to the Rockies Friday night.
Then came Stroman’s lone walk of the game and the big homer on a 2-2 splitter.
The Cubs closed a two-run gap to 6-5 on Patrick Wisdom’s two-out RBI double in the ninth. And Wisdom advanced to third, where he was stranded when Michael Hermosillo popped up to end the game. Willson Contreras picked up where he left off in Pittsburgh for the Cubs, going 3-for-5 with two doubles and throwing out a runner trying to steal second.
