Brewers 7, Cubs 5: A trip to Brewers country

PHOENIX, Arizona — I’ll have some comments on “American Family Fields of Phoenix” (which Brewers beat writers have dubbed “AFFOP”) later, but first, a few comments on the baseball side of the Cubs’ 7-5 loss to the Brewers Sunday afternoon.

Kyle Hendricks was throwing typical Kyle. He topped out at 86-87, and got three called strikeouts in the first two innings. Meanwhile, the Cubs fashioned a 5-0 lead. The first run scored on this RBI double by Willson Contreras [VIDEO].
