MILWAUKEE — All-Star right fielder Kyle Tucker is searching for his signature playoff moment with the Cubs. Evening up the National League Division Series in Game 2 on Monday could be the perfect way for him to put his stamp on the series.
Although manager Craig Counsell said the Cubs already have moved on from their 9-3 loss to the Brewers in Game 1 on Saturday, how they respond Monday to being down 1-0 will be telling. That response started Sunday afternoon, when players were working out in silence at American Family Field before a staff member brought out a speaker to play music, starting with — appropriately — “Not Afraid” by rapper Eminem.
