The Cubs defeated the Braves 8-3 Monday evening, but I know what you want to hear about is the little kerfuffle between Willson Contreras and Braves catcher Tyler Flowers.
That happened in the bottom of the second inning of a scoreless game. Jon Lester had retired the first six Braves and the Cubs did not score in the bottom of the first.
Willson’s homer into the basket, his 16th, gave the Cubs a 1-0 lead.
