Wednesday’s game ran without much fanfare. Kyle Hendricks had trouble keeping the ball in play. Frank Schwindel had two hits. A teaser rally fell just short.

If Chirinos has any sort of an oblique problem, he might well be finished for the season. If he is out, who gets the next look?
Step one was easy. The Iowa Cubs roster has four catchers.
