Cubs first baseman Derrek Lee could be out for the rest of the season because of his 3-year-old daughter’s illness.
Lee had missed the last two games before he said Sunday he was taking a leave of absence to be with his wife and child.
“My daughter’s lost some vision in one eye and we’ll find out more at a later time; we have to go through some more tests,” Lee said in a statement. “Right now we just ask for everyone’s prayers. We need a miracle, we need your prayers.
