Chicago Cubs Lineup: Cubs Go For Series Win in 2nd Game of Doubleheader
Ok, so the first game didn’t go the Cubs’ way but they get another shot just a few hours later. It’s good when you can quickly turn around and try to erase a bad game.
John Lackey will pitch tonight for the Cubs as they go for the series win. Dexter Fowler is back in the lineup and in the lead-off spot, while Kris Bryant resumes his duties at 3rd base. It looks like Joe is going to keep the hot-hitting Zobrist on the bench tonight and Tommy La Stella slots in a second base. Addison Russell is off tonight as well and Javier Baez will cover shortstop.
Here’s the rest of tonight’s lineup:
