Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: August 31

Every team has either clinched a playoff spot (Iowa, South Bend) or has been eliminated from postseason contention. The minor league regular season ends on Monday.

Starter Tyson Miller allowed a two-run home run in the first inning and then another run in the seventh inning. Between that, he pitched pretty well. The final line on Miller was three runs on five hits over 6.2 innings. Miller walked two and struck out six.

Iowa didn’t have a hit in this game until Zack Short doubled in the eighth inning. Iowa’s only other hit was a one-out triple by Albert Almora Jr.
