T2 — The theme of the game so far has been deep fly balls that have stayed in the yard. Happ (who's starting in CF for the Cubs) has already caught a few. Baez flies out to deep RF to start off the 2nd.

T2 — Heyward hits a base knock w/ 1 out & proceeds to steal 2B for his 6th steal of the year. Happ at the plate.

T3 — Rizzo goes yard w/ a really, really high moonshot. Plenty of hang time on the 2-run jack.

E3 — Much to Cubs fans' delight, Ryan Braun swings & misses at a pitch so badly that he falls down. Braun then flies out to end the inning.

E6 — A reminder of the importance of replay in baseball. A 2-run blast by the Brewers overturned on a replay review. The towering shot to LF was just foul. Right after that, the roof at Miller Park begins to close.

T8 — Uh oh. Contreras shaken up after swinging & missing at a pitch & having it hit off his fingers. He's in pain & calls for trainer but appears to be shaking it off.

B8 — Gamel (the Cub killer from last night) puts the Brewers on the board w/ a solo blast off Cishek. Cishek, who's been struggling out of the break, then gives up a double hit off the wall by Cain. Not a great week for Cubs relief.

B8 — Cishek's outing ends, & Holland (who's fresh off being traded to the Cubs) comes into the game for his Cubs debut.

B8 — Holland forces a flyout. Unfortunately for the Cubs, Almora slips while making the catch, & the speedy Cain tags up & makes it to 3B w/ ease.

B8 — After Rizzo does a great job to catch a difficult popup off the bat of Braun, Chatwood gives up a double down the RF line. Hiura's 2-bagger plates Cain & ties the game.

B9 — Smooth play by Wick. On comebacker, runner tries to go from 2B to 3B. Wick notices & guns to KB, who pulls off the tagout. No RISP now for the Brewers.

B9 — More smoothness. This time by Javy after a not-so-smooth throw from behind the plate by Contreras. Gamel steals 2B on bad throw that bounces into the OF. Baez pretends to still have the ball in order to keep Gamel from going to 3B.

E9 — Yet another clutch K by Wick. He's proving his worth tonight. Cain strikes out swinging to end the inning & force extras.

B10 — Blown save for Kimbrel. Yelich goes deep for the 36th time this season. Leadoff solo shot neutralizes Almora's leadoff solo shot.

F/10 — Game over. After a walk, Kimbrel gives up a walkoff 2-run dinger to Hiura (who had a HR called back earlier). Horrific outing by Kimbrel. Forgettable week for the Cubs' bullpen.
