MILWAUKEE — In the span of two days at Miller Park, the Cubs went from two All-Star shortstops to none as they try desperately to stay in playoff position down the stretch.
Addison Russell left Sunday’s game in the third inning, a half-inning after being hit in the head by a pitch from Adrian Houser.
The severity of his condition was not immediately known.
Russell, who was attended to by a Cubs trainer and two members of the Brewers’ medical staff for several minutes, appeared dazed but stayed in the game just long enough to run the bases.
