Kyle Hendricks insists he is getting ever closer to last season's superb form, and a steadily dropping earned-run average bears him out. The Chicago Cubs right-hander is scheduled to make his ninth start of the season on Wednesday in the third game of a four-game series with the San Francisco Giants. Hendricks (3-2, 3.35 ERA) will go against Giants left-hander Matt Moore (2-4, 5.37 ERA).
