Kirk Nieuwenhuis exited from an 0-18 slump with two homers, four RBI, and a 3-3 night with a walk to lead the offense, and Zach Davies DID befuddle the Cubs for 6.1 innings as the Brewers evened their series at one game a piece.
John Lackey started for the Cubs and was behind in the bottom of the first. Jonathon Lucroy capped a twelve pitch at bat with a two run homer to leftcenter, putting the Brewers up 2-0.
