That was reinforced Thursday against the Cubs. With two outs in the top of the ninth and the Nationals ahead by two, the Cubs laced together three consecutive hits and three runs to take the lead before Wade Davis threw a scoreless bottom of the ninth inning to seal the 5-4 victory. "A win's a win -- it doesn't matter how it looks, how we get there," Chicago starter Jon Lester said. "We'll take two of four from a really good team. Hopefully, this can build a little momentum for us." The Nationals lost more than the game, revealing afterward that shortstop Trea Turner had a broken bone in his right wrist from a HBP in the seventh. Turner was hit by a Pedro Strop fastball, but stayed in the game until the top of the ninth when he was replaced by Stephen Drew in a double switch. Postgame X-rays revealed the fracture. The Nationals did not announce a timetable for Turner's return. Braves star Freddie Freeman sustained a similar injury six weeks ago and is expected to begin a rehab assignment this weekend. Washington has 13 weeks remaining in the regular season and holds a 9 1/2-game lead over Atlanta in the National League East. The loss marked the Nationals' Majors-leading sixth when entering the ninth with a lead. "I just didn't execute," said Blake Treinen, who's 3-for-5 in save opportunities this season. "Joe [Ross] threw a great game, and the offense did everything they could to get us out of here with a win, and I came in and didn't do my job. I need to be better. It's getting exhausting, and I'm sure these guys are sick of seeing the same result when I'm out there." The Nationals claimed the lead in the seventh inning when Anthony Rendon hit a two-run homer and Brian Goodwin knocked an RBI single. The lead lasted until Jon Jay's double scored the tying and winning runs. "That was a big rally," Jay said of the Cubs' three-run ninth. "We kept the line moving and had some great at-bats there." The Cubs' success against the Nationals' bullpen spoiled Ross' second quality start in as many outings. The right- hander allowed two runs and struck out seven in 6 2/3 innings. Lester allowed just one run in his six innings and struck out seven. "We are a really good team now," Nationals manager Dusty Baker said, "but we still need some help." MOMENTS THAT MATTERED Man on the run: Turner ran all over the Cubs this series, stealing seven bases and setting a career high with 35 swiped bags for the season Thursday. On Tuesday, the Nationals stole seven bases, including four from Turner, with Miguel Montero behind the plate. Turner stole two more bases Thursday, but the Cubs caught him stealing for the first time in the four-game set when he delayed his steal of third in the first inning, limiting the Nationals to just one run in the frame. Willson Contreras also caught speedster Michael Taylor stealing second in the fifth inning, stabilizing Washington on the basepaths for the first time this series. Candy man: The Cubs were without Kris Bryant (ankle), but rookie Jeimer Candelario filled in at third, hitting his first Major League home run leading off the seventh for a brief 2-1 lead. Candelario was making his fourth consecutive start since he was called up when Jason Heyward (hand) went on the disabled list. The rookie launched an 0-1 pitch from Ross 425 feet to right-center. "I was trying to throw a fastball inside," Ross said. "It was just left over the middle. He put a good swing on it and put it out to right field. It was a hot day today, so kind of off the bat I knew it was gone." Candelario was hit by a pitch on the left knee in the ninth. He stayed in the game, but could barely run to second. X-rays were negative and he has a painful contusion. QUOTABLE "Obviously, [the Nationals'] starting pitching is outstanding, they have some speed and just like advertised, their bullpen, they're probably going to do something about that. The starting pitching is outstanding, power, speed, good defense. They played really well. We got to their bullpen tonight. I think what we had heard [about them] coming in was pretty much true." -- Cubs manager Joe Maddon "[Treinen's] got great stuff, probably the best stuff on the team. So to even see him get hit sometimes, I'm pretty surprised." -- Ross SOUND SMART WITH YOUR FRIENDS Davis retired the side in the ninth to pick up his 16th save in 16 tries. His 16 consecutive save conversions to begin the season extends the Cubs' franchise record.

  • Kyle Schwarber Projects His Own Cubs Future As Great Baseball Minds Confirm His Self-Confidence
    Kyle Schwarber projects his own Cubs future as great baseball minds confirm his self-confidence By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Monday, August 3, 2015 If Kyle Schwarber can’t be even more successful than he already has been in his sensational break-in month as a Cub, something’s seriously wrong. The stocky catcher-outfielder-natural hitter drips motivation and student of baseball from every pore, and wizened baseball men can spot those qualities at 40 paces or closer. “I’ve seen a guy make adjustments pitch to pitch,” Cubs Hall of Famer Billy Williams said of Schwarber. “He’s just a baseball player knowing what he can do to be successful. He has work to do (to improve) behind the plate. I sat in a meeting the other day Kyle Schwarber with the catching coach, and (Schwarber) talked like a veteran booked an express getting out the hitters. He’s an individual who wants to learn. ticket to Wrigley Field after the Those who have an ear and open mind to learn do well in the equivalent of one game.” minor-league sea- Cincinnati Reds third-base coach Jim Riggleman, the last man to manage five full seasons for the Cubs, senses an elite hitter after Schwarber fast-tracked through the minor leagues since his June 2014 selection as the Cubs’ No. 1 pick. “The really impact guys get there quickly,” he said. “Go back through the history of the game. The greatest hitters didn’t get to big leagues at 25, 26. For most part, the great ones were there early, like (Mickey) Mantle, (Hank) Aaron, (Ted) Williams, (Albert) Pu- jols.
