Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: July 4

It is a rare Monday night edition of the Minor League Wrap. We’ve got a full slate of games tonight as “baseball and fireworks” is probably the biggest gate draw in the minor leagues.

Just a reminder, because there’s a Minor League Wrap tonight, there won’t be one tomorrow night. Tuesday is an off-day this week and this week only.

The Iowa Cubs were edged by Indianapolis (Pirates), 5-4 in ten innings.

Javier Assad made his Triple-A debut in this game and went 4.1 innings and allowed three runs on eight hits.
