The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Chicago Cubs by a score of two to zero in a notable game, marking the first regular season Friday night contest held at Wrigley Field. A key moment occurred when Ryan Braun hit his 300th career home run. On the mound, Jimmy Nelson pitched effectively and, along with three relievers who followed him, combined to limit the Cubs' offense to just five hits throughout the game.
