Barney's errorless streak ends in Cubs' loss
PHOENIX – Cubs second baseman Darwin Barney committed a rare error Friday night, but first baseman Anthony Rizzo took the blame.
"It hit off my glove," Rizzo said after the Cubs' 8-3 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. "It's just one of those things that I think I should have."
Barney long ago had broken Cubs legend Ryne Sandberg's NL-record 123-game streak without an error at second base and was three outs from breaking Placido Polanco's major league record of 141 games.
