NEW YORK -- Ian Happ was out of the lineup for the second straight day with oblique discomfort, but Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Sunday that the left fielder is feeling better.
Happ tweaked his oblique on a swing in the first inning of Friday's 7-2 loss to the New York Mets when he struck out against Clay Holmes. He stayed in the game and went 0 for 3 with a walk, then was out of the lineup for Saturday's 6-5 win.
Happ took swings and threw in the outfield Sunday.
