Spencer Arrighetti (foot) set for rehab start

With Daniel Palencia unavailable on Thursday night, Rolison was called upon to protect the slimmest of leads with a pair of left-handers scheduled to bat in the ninth inning. He made it look easy, getting Jake Bauers and Andrew Vaughn on comebackers to the mound before retiring Christian Yelich on a bouncer to second to end the game. The 29-year-old southpaw holds a 2.93 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and a 49/24 K/BB ratio over 55 1/3 innings in 51 appearances for the Cubs this season while notching seven victories and a pair of saves.

The 35-year-old right-hander scattered five hits on the night while issuing just one free pass. The only run scored against him came on a solo shot off the bat of Andrew Vaughn with two outs in the fourth inning. Aside from that, Gausman was in complete control. He got 14 whiffs on 103 offerings in the ballgame, registering a strong CSW of 34 percent. He’ll look to keep the good times rolling as he carries a 4.38 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and a 165/44 K/BB ratio (162 1/3 innings) into a tough matchup against Jacob Misiorowski and these Brewers in Milwaukee on Tuesday.

Vaughn tagged Cubs’ right-hander Kevin Gausman for a 420-foot (105.5-mph EV) solo shot in the fourth inning that pulled the Brewers to within one run at 2-1. That would wind up being the extent of the scoring in the contest. The 28-year-old slugger finished the night 1-for-4 and is now hitting .313/.397/.462 with six homers and 42 RBI on the season.

Henderson racked up seven strikeouts on the night and didn’t allow a base on balls. The lone blemish on his day came on a two-run blast off the bat of Pete Crow-Armstrong in the third inning. Unfortunately, that was enough to do him in. Henderson got 13 swings and misses on 102 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 27 percent. Now 9-3 on the season, he’ll carry a brilliant 2.48 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and a 93/14 K/BB ratio (83 1/3 innings) into a rematch against the Cubs at home on Wednesday.

The 22-year-old outfielder has had an impressive season between Double-A Chattanooga and Triple-A Louisville, slashing .308/.376/.427 with eight homers, 43 RBI, 33 stolen bases and a 77/33 K/BB ratio over 383 plate appearances. He could be an interesting speed flier in deeper mixed leagues if he works his way into regular playing time in the Reds’ outfield.

Stowers was hit on the foot by a Craig Kimbrel pitch, but unfortunately, it was another hamstring issue that did him in tonight. He was just on the IL from Aug. 11-24 with a left hamstring strain. He also missed the start of the season with a right hamstring strain. If Stowers goes back on the IL, it would potentially lead to more at-bats for Agustín Ramírez and Deyvison De Los Santos.

Kimbrel vomited on the mound before departing the game in the seventh. He retired two of the three batters he faced before leaving.

Rutschman hit 377- and 389-foot homers off Brandon Young for his second and third homers in 16 games with the Red Sox. It was his fifth career two-homer game. The last of those came against the Red Sox in an Orioles’ win back in April.

Bennett gave up back-to-back homers to Luis Robert Jr. and Pete Alonso in the sixth. Alonso’s really ought to have been caught in center, but Eli White, who is not Ceddanne Rafaela, backed into the wall as he was trying to time his jump. It still goes as Bennett’s third straight quality start, though he missed out on a third straight win. He’ll face the Angels next time out.

Christian Encarnacion-Strand took Chapman deep in a three-run game. It was the third homer allowed by Chapman in 46 2/3 innings this season, but it didn’t stop him from picking up save No. 398 of his career.
