Michael Busch News: Getting afternoon off

Busch is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

Justin Turner will pick up the start at first base in place of Busch as the Cubs go with an extra right-handed bat to counter Giants southpaw Robbie Ray. Busch has logged 19 plate appearances against lefties this season and is batting .188 with one extra-base hit (a double) in those matchups.
