Boos rose from the crowd as Cubs star Kyle Tucker grounded out to second to lead off the sixth inning, and then again when he flew out to left field to left to end the eighth.

“The fans are frustrated, and Kyle’s frustrated,” manager Craig Counsell said after the Cubs’ 7-0 loss Monday to the Brewers. “And it’s unfortunate, because when you make outs, it doesn’t look great, but he’s trying. It’s not clicking”

Tucker, who’s tallied just four extra-base hits since the beginning of July, was the recipient of Cubs fans’ message Monday.
