Cubs pitcher wears non-Cubs helmet to batter's box


Tony Crumpton Tony Crumpton - Senior Editor -

Chicago Cubs newcomer Eddie Butler started Monday's game against the Miami Marlins on Monday night. An interesting thing happened as he came up to bat in the second inning with a non-Cubs batting helmet on.

The decal must have fallen off during the game because I can't imagine him picking that helmet. During the game on the pitching side, Butler retired 16 of the 20 batters that he faced.
