Happ hasn't been THE problem, but with 14 strikeouts in 22 at bats, he has  certainly been A problem.

Maybe not *the* problem, but 14 strikeouts in 22 ABs is *a* problem.  The leadoff the season with a home run thing was cool and all, but it doesn't seem to have done Happ any favors since.

Are you kidding me?  I would have gotten mine in first if I hadn't taken the time to use asterisks for emphasis.

If someone could take the time to explain what is not the (THE, *the*, the, the, the) problem and what is a (A, *a*, a, a, a) problem...

Russell gets em on the board. 1-0.

Nice AB.  With 2 strikes, cut down swing nets a sharp grounder to right.  Effective.

Caratini broken bat flare. 2-0.

That was just lucky.

Putting the ball in play can lead to luck.

Brewers' starter at 76 pitches thru 3.  Lot of grindery at bats.

Thames ties it up, 2-2 in the 5th.  Drives in the great Hader, who led off the inning with a hit.

Hendrick's gave up a 2-run HR to Thames.  2-2.

Cubs offense needed to do more with the Brewers starter.
