Kyle Tucker News: Idle for both games of doubleheader

Tucker is out of the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Brewers.

Cubs manager Craig Counsell previously said Monday that Tucker would receive multiple days off while he fights through an extended slump at the plate. After he went 0-for-4 in the Cubs' 7-0 loss to the Brewers in the first game of Monday's scheduled doubleheader, the second contest was postponed, resulting in the two teams playing a twin bill Tuesday. Tucker sat out the Cubs' 6-4 win in Game 1 and will now take a seat again for Game 2 while Owen Caissie draws another start in right field.
