Russell exits in 4th with shoulder discomfort

Russell was 0-for-2 before leaving with the injury. He made an error in the first inning that led to three unearned runs for the Marlins, but he fielded a Martin Prado grounder and threw out Miami's third baseman in the third inning.

The Cubs made a series of moves to replace Russell. Javier Baez shifted over from second base to shortstop, Ian Happ went from center field to second, Kris Bryant moved from right field to center and Willson Contreras entered the game to play right.
