Rox battle back, but can`t finish comeback bid
(MLB.com Colorado Rockies)

A 96.3-mph fastball got away from Rockies right-hander German Marquez and hit Cubs star Kris Bryant in the helmet Sunday afternoon, and Marquez never did regain his handle thereafter. After the hit batsman that sent Bryant to the clubhouse with a laceration above his left eye -- but no signs of a concussion -- the Cubs bested Marquez for three first-inning runs and six over 3 1/3 frames in their 9-7 victory at Coors Field.
