Milwaukee Roughed Up By Cubs
The Chicago Cubs handed the Milwaukee Brewers a loss at Miller Park. The final score was 12-3. Major production was provided by Paul DeJong for Chicago.

He worked 7 innings, giving up no runs on 2 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 2. The Cubs, now 2-0, have hit the ground running this season.

With Chicago leading 7-0 in the top of the seventh, DeJong came up to bat against Milwaukee pitcher Joel Kuhnel. DeJong hit a changeup to left-center for a grand slam home run. His 3rd home run of the season put the Cubs on top, 11-0.

"We take it day by day here," said DeJong, "and today was a good one for us."
