Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs won their third-straight game over the Round Rock Express (Rangers), 6-5.
The Cubs pitched a bullpen game today as starter Jen Ho Tseng was scratched, and you can read into that what you will with Yu Darvish going on the disabled list. But starter Brad Markey pitched the first two innings and allowed three runs on four hits.
