CHICAGO (AP) — The Washington Nationals had just grabbed a one-run lead when Kris Bryant erased it with a mammoth home run. Chris Coghlan had a one-out single against Matt Grace (2-1) before the Cubs caught a huge break when shortstop Ian Desmond threw wide to first while trying to turn a potential double play on Jonathan Herrera's grounder to second. The inning continued, and Russell lined a 1-0 pitch beyond center fielder Denard Span's reach for the rookie's third hit of the game. Hendricks, coming off his first career shutout last week at San Diego, gave up four hits. Nationals: RF Jayson Werth (bruised left wrist) rejoined the team, but manager Matt Williams is not sure when he will be activated from the disabled list. The same goes for RHP Neil Ramirez (right shoulder inflammation) and infielders Tommy La Stella (right rib cage inflammation) and Mike Olt (hairline fracture in right wrist). Free-agent prizes will be on the mound when Cubs LHP Jon Lester (4-2, 3.56 ERA) and Nationals RHP Max Scherzer (5-3, 1.67 ERA) start the finale of the three-game set.
