Clint Frazier cleared waivers and accepted an assignment to Iowa. He was not in tonight’s lineup.
Alfonso Rivas was scheduled to start tonight’s Iowa game, but was replaced when Frank Schwindel got injured. I can only assume Rivas is on his way to Chicago.
The Iowa Cubs detained the Omaha Storm Chasers (Royals), 5-3.
Matt Dermody gave the I-Cubs four scoreless innings to start out the game, allowing just one hit. The Iowa native struck out six and walked three.
The win went to Wyatt Short because Dermody didn’t go five innings.
