The Cleveland Indians and the Chicago Cubs face off today in a rematch of the 2016 World Series that netted the Cubs their first World Series Championship in 108 years. First pitch is scheduled for 6:05pm Central Standard Time and the game can be seen on National TV on ESPN and WGN. It will take place at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois. The Indians are slight favorites at -103 and the over/under is 7.5 runs.
The Chicago Cubs are 25-19 so far on the year and are in third place in the National League Central. They trail the Milwaukee Brewers by 2 games. The Cubs will send right handed pitcher, Tyler Chatwood to the mound today. He has pitched well this year and is 3-3 with an ERA of 3.14. The bats are finally warming up for the Cubs and Bryant, La Stella, and Almora Jr. are all batting over .300.
The Cleveland Indians are in first place in the American League Central. But they are just 22-23 on the year. Their division might be the worst in all of sports but the Indians aren’t complaining. They will give the ball to their ace today, Trevor Bauer. He is 3-3 with a very impressive ERA of 2.59 and a WHIP of 1.12. Inconsistent hitting has been a major problem for the Indians but they should enjoy some good swings at Wrigley Field with the wind possibly blowing out.
