Strop injures left hamstring trying to beat throw

The Cubs’ dramatic 4-3, 10-inning win over the Nationals on Thursday afternoon at Nationals Park may have been soured by a left hamstring injury to closer Pedro Strop. Batting in the 10th inning, Strop injured his hamstring after trying to beat the throw to first on a bases-loaded ground ball to third baseman Anthony Rendon, who threw home to start the double play.
