Chicago Cubs Lineup: Hendricks Looks to Continue His Domination
Kyle Hendricks (4-4, 2.84 ERA) has given up a mere four runs in his last three games, which includes a complete game in his last outing against these same Philadelphia Phillies (28-30). Kyle has started the season towards the bottom of the majors in run support at 3.40 runs per game. A strange fact considering the Cubs boast one of the top offenses in the majors.
After the injury to Jorge Soler in last night’s game, the Cubs called up Albert Almora from AAA Iowa. He’ll start the game on the bench tonight. Kris Bryant takes over in left field with Tommy La Stella manning third base.
