There’ll be no fear of sunburn when the Brewers and Cubs take the field, though the visitors may still be a little hot and bothered by the notion of being forced to play a night game. As you may recall, the Brewers took serious issue with the Cubs getting a one-time exception from Mayor Rahm Emanuel and local alderman Tom Tunney to push back the scheduled start due to Thursday night’s finale in Pittsburgh.
With the two teams locked in a tight division race for much of the season, the Cubs making the move purely for competitive purposes just rubbed Milwaukee the wrong way.
