Takeaways:

- Dreadful night for Milwaukee and a breakout game from a Cubs' offense that had a slow start to the year

- Milwaukee starting pitching continues to struggle (Suter 5IP, 8 hits, 5 runs (4 earned), 3BB, 5K)

- Brewers post just 4 hits, 3 of which came from Aguilar. Crew strikes out 11 times (2 each from Domingo Santana, Perez and Arcia)

- Milwaukee shutout for second straight game for first time since August of 2015

- Lester bounced back from an awful Opening Day start and looked like the ace he typically is

- Cubs rack up 13 hits and draw four walks

- Brewers' closer Corey Knebel leaves with apparent left leg injury (looked serious and would be big blow to team if he missed a lot of time)

Game two of the series is scheduled for a 7:10 p.m. start on Friday
