Joey Lucchesi struck out nine in 5 2/3 innings after his start was pushed back a day due to a bout with food poisoning.“The main thing we can’t lose focus on is understanding how hard the process is,” Hosmer said. “We’re going to learn from failure. As long as we’re gaining ground and moving forward, we’ll be all right. And we definitely did that in this series.”Javier Baez hit his career-best 24th homer and an RBI double for Chicago Cheap Kerryon Johnson Jersey , which won five of seven in the season series against San Diego.
