Chicago Cubs pitcher Benjamin Brown met his wife, Maggie Seibert, at Church in Florida.
Pitcher Ben Brown (4-5) recorded the win Tuesday, June 17, 2025, against the Brewers, giving up two runs on six hits and two walks in five innings.
The long ball remained an issue for Ben, who gave up at least one home run in his third consecutive start, but he was able to limit the damage despite surrendering four extra-base hits.
It was the third time in the 25-year-old right-hander’s last three starts that he threw at least five innings while allowing two runs or fewer, which has helped improve his ERA to 5.57 to go with a 1.48 WHIP and 88:25 K: BB across 74.1 innings for the season.
He has still conceded at least five runs on five occasions in 2025, so he will likely remain a volatile fantasy option this weekend in a challenging test versus the Mariners.
Following his fantastic gameplay, some Twitter fans have praised him through tweets. One fan wrote,
Ben brown masterclass today/ 5IP, 2R, on 6 hits. Dudes gotta lock in. He does have really good stuff but he tends to throw middle middle fastballs a lot. #cubs

Cubs starter Ben Brown on PCA’s energy: “He plays every single day. And every game he plays is like two games for a normal person, just with how hard he plays. So at the end of the year, when Pete plays 158 games, he may as well have played 300 and whatever doubling that is.”

The third fan wrote,
Absolute GUT CHECK win for the Cubs. That was not an easy win to pull out, Ben Brown does just enough to hold Milwaukee, the bats wake up, and the Cubs take game 1! Needed this one.
