Pitcher Chris Rusin was optioned to Triple-A Iowa as the corresponding move when Raley was recalled before Saturday's game. Rusin gave up just one hit over five innings against the Brewers last week, which happened to be an infield single that had deflected off his foot. Rusin is expected to be called back up when rosters expand in a week.
Brett Jackson hit his third home run since being called up from Triple-A Iowa, which scored two runs in the fourth inning. Today's loss was the team's 19th in their last 24 games.
Tomorrow the Cubs and Rockies will play the final game in the series at 1:20CT. Chris Volstad will make the start for the Cubs and hopefully will finally get a win.
