But Keon Broxton homered and Orlando Arcia drove in two runs for Milwaukee, making the Cubs wait for the result of St. Louis game at San Francisco to find out if their season-long dominance of the Central was complete.The crowd of 41,362 cheered loudly when Hunter Pences two-run homer in the first inning against the Cardinals was shown on the video board in left field.Jorge Soler hit a two-run homer for the Cubs, who had won three of four.

BOSTON -- Anton Khudobin became the latest Boston Bruins goaltender to get injured Monday.Khudobin skated over to the Bruins bench at Warrior Ice Arena just before practice and had his right arm or wrist attended to by the training staff. The goaltender then left the ice and didnt return.On Tuesday Bruins GM Don Sweeney announced Khudobin has an upper body injury and is expected to miss approximately three weeks.Sweeney also announced that the team has recalled goaltender Zane McIntyre from the Providence Bruins on an emergency basis and assigned defenseman Rob OGara to Providence.The Bruins already were without Tuukka Rask, who has been out since Oct. 20?because of an undisclosed injury suffered in a game against the New Jersey Devils.?Heading into their home game against the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday, the Bruins (3-2-0) didnt know who would be their starting goaltender.This is hockey, Bruins coach Claude Julien said. We deal on a day-to-day basis with injuries. You wait for the news and you go about doing your job as its required.

Rask is 3-0-0 with a .947 save percentage and 1.67 goals-against average.Khudobin is 0-2-0 with a .849 save percentage and 4.10 GAA.Subbans emergency call-up couldnt have come at a worse time for the 22-year-old.

He allowed four goals on 34 shots in an overtime loss to Albany on Sunday.Obviously not the way you want to start the season, Subban said. To be honest, last game I felt a lot better. ... I feel like Im battling. Its not the first time Ive faced adversity, its not going to be the last. I dont feel too down on myself right now, to be honest.Subbans only previous NHL experience was a start to forget on Feb. 20, 2015, on the road against the St. Louis Blues.He was pulled one minute into the second period after allowing three goals on six shots.With the Bruins needing to bounce back from their 4-2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday, Subban might get another chance.If I get the call, Ill be ready to go, Subban said.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
