Iowa Cubs Play Without Fans

Despite Des Moines' city evacuation order, the game went on this past Saturday, June 14, at an empty Principal Park. The only ones in attendance at the game were Cubs employees, scouts, and media. It sounds like the usual crowd that shows up for my local Cedar Rapids Kernels! Sean Marshall pitched five innings and allowed two runs for the AAA Iowa Cubs, but did not get a decision in the 5-4 win over the Nashville Sounds.
