The Cubs split their first two games in Milwaukee, both of which saw them hold what appeared to be pretty secure late leads. Both games ended up going to extras and only a pair of tremendous defensive plays salvaged Tuesday’s contest. It would be really great if Justin Steele performs like an ace and the offense continues to put up runs throughout the game so we don’t have to worry about another nail-biter.
Mike Tauchman will get things started as the DH, then it’s Nico Hoerner at second and Seiya Suzuki in right.
