Whatever you call him, Hendricks glad to be back on mound, despite Cubs ugly loss to Mets. McGrawDHSports Cubs
Cubs manager David Ross inadvertently revealed the in-house nickname for Kyle Hendricks before Thursday's return game.
The performance wasn't terrible by any means. Hendricks allowed 6 hits, all singles, and 5 runs with just 3 earned in 4⅓ innings. It certainly wasn't vintage Hendricks, and the Cubs bullpen was arguably worse. "For myself personally, after the first inning, felt much more like myself," Hendricks said."So I'm going to take those positives I was able to do, bad contact, couple of bad hits here and there. So it's back to work this week, hopefully get in my rhythm and get in my routine, have everything be normal from here on out."
"My teammates were so supportive of me the whole way, helped me so much just having the confidence to get back out there and do my thing again. And frustrating on the other hand that I wasn't able to build on the momentum we'd built the last two games." "Got to finish better and make a couple better pitches," Hendricks said."But I executed a lot of those, some bad contact, soft contact, which is what I'm looking for. But just have to do a better job in a baseball sense of locking in on the task at hand, finishing that inning, getting it over with, getting the guys back in the dugout."
