Cubs left-hander Justin Steele admitted he had the first-start jitters, as evidenced by throwing his first five pitches for balls and nearly sailing his 11th pitch to the backstop.
But Steele, who is in his second season as a full-time starter, settled down to post one of his most impressive outings. Steele, with the help of some dazzling defense by shortstop Dansby Swanson, worked out of a first-inning jam and limited the Brewers to three hits while striking out eight in six innings.
