Busch went 2-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.

Busch had half of the Cubs' four hits as a team -- including the key hit of the game -- a three-run double in the bottom of the third inning that erased a 1-0 Milwaukee lead. The Chicago first baseman is batting only .185 this month, though he is now riding a modest three-game hitting streak, with extra-base knocks in his last two contests. Busch should remain Chicago's primary leadoff hitter against righties.
