The Brewers and Cubs met in the fourth matchup of their five game series at Wrigley Field on a chilly Wednesday night. Chicago went ahead early and survived a very tense 9th inning to pick up a series victory with a one-run win.
Starter Colin Rea walked the bases loaded with one out in the top of the 2nd, but Milwaukee only scored one run on a ground out by Blake Perkins. The North Siders found themselves in a similar position when rookie phenom Jacob Misiorowski issued three consecutive free passes to open up the bottom of the 3rd inning.
