Umpire misses Pirates-Cubs game

CHICAGO (AP) — Umpire D.J. Reyburn did not take the field for Pittsburgh’s game at the Chicago Cubs due to an illness.

The Cubs say Reyburn is “under the weather.” Reyburn was scheduled to be at first, so there was a three-man crew of Brian O’Nora, Jeff Kellogg and Dan Bellino for the series opener on a hot and humid Friday afternoon in Chicago.
