Baseball has a unique ability to rollercoaster your emotions. Willson Contreras missing some time with a hamstring issue (particularly sad for us at Heroes and Goats as he was having his best H&G season). P.J. Higgins, called up to replace Willson had a three-run triple to give the Cubs an early lead! Wade Miley looking great again. After starting low, the day was looking up.
Wade had a rough sixth, allowing three runs after five scoreless (for a total of 12 consecutive scoreless innings). The dependable Keegan Thompson was touched for a run of his own in the seventh, giving the lead to the Diamondbacks for the first time in the game.
