The Cubs looked to build off their most impressive win of the young season Friday night in Milwaukee as Kyle Hendricks dueled rookie Brandon Woodruff. Chicago had the clear edge the first four innings, holding a 2-0 lead thanks to hits from Addison Russell and Victor Caratini.
The wheels came off for the Professor in the bottom of the 5th inning, when two-run homers by Eric Thames and Travis Shaw gave the Brewers a 4-2 edge. The Cubs tied the score the next half inning on a little-league home run by Javy Baez, which was an RBI triple and a throwing error for those scoring at home.
