Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: August 26
Bryce Ball Casey McDonald/South Bend Cubs I thought I should work the pun on “Minor League Wrap” and rap today’s highlights. Then I realize “No one wants to hear you rap. Including you.”
The Iowa Cubs were soaked by the Omaha Storm Chasers (Royals), 3-2.
Luis Lugo’s second start in Triple-A was a lot better than his first as he allowed just one run on three hits over five innings. Lugo struck out four and walked two.
Dillon Maples allowed one run on a solo home run to Nick Pratto in the only inning he pitched. Maples gave up two hits total. He did not walk or strike anyone out.
