Cubs reliever Jason Adam suffered an “open dislocation of the ankle” today in batting practice in Des Moines. Obviously we wish a speedy recovery to Adam, but he’s clearly going to miss a lot of time.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs took a 9-3 lead into the ninth inning and hung on for a 9-8 win over the Omaha Storm Chasers (Royals).
Shelby Miller made another rehab start tonight and went four innings. Miller allowed three runs, two earned, on only one hit. That hit was a two-run home run in the fourth inning.
