Jose Quintana did his job, shutting down the Washington Nationals, as he matched Max Scherzer’s start, but with two outs in the sixth inning Kyle Schwarber committed two errors on one play that led to a run.
This was brutal.

Pedro Strop came in to face the next batter and Ryan Zimmerman made the Chicago Cubs pay, hitting an RBI-double to give the Nationals a 1-0.
So far, the Cubs are being no-hit through five innings.
