Cubs fans were already streaming toward the exits as closer Ryan Pressly walked off the field. Of those left, a smattering sent him off with boos.

“He’s a true professional guy who wants the ball, who wants big moments, to compete and win games for us, and he’s going to do that a lot this year,” second baseman Nico Hoerner said.
