Ryan Braun is not in the Brewers lineup tonight. The left-handed Shane Peterson will start in right field and leadoff against the Cubs.
Peterson is seeing more playing time since the trade deadline saw Carlos Gomez and Gerardo Parra leave town. Tonight he faces Cubs righty Dan Haren who is allowing a .360 wOBA and 35.5 hard-hit percentage against left-handers this season. However Peterson only has a .316 wOBA against right-handers this season.
