Rockies @ Cubs: Bettis vs Hendricks (Game 10)
The Cubs start 8-1, their best since 196x--aka, the Year that Shall not Be Named.
COL (5-4): RHP Chad Bettis (1-0, 4.38)
CHC (8-1): RHP Kyle Hendricks (1-0, 2.70)
First pitch: 1:20pmCT
Hendricks beat Arizona on Saturday, giving up 2 ER in 6.2 innings. He was 2-3 with a 3.38 in his 15 Wrigley starts last year. The Rockies are a healthy 18-48 (.375) against him. LeMahieu is 3-7, and Gonzalez is 3-8 with a HR.
Bettis avoided a loss in his first start, despite giving up 5 ER in 5.1 in Arizona, and he pitched 7 strong innings (1 ER, 6 Ks, 0 BBs) to win against the Dodgers on Sunday. He went 4-3 with a 3.35 in 9 starts away from Coors Field last year. These Cubs are 3-9 off of him. Heyward is 1-5 with a HR.
Bergman (0-1, 12.00) has the misfortune of matching up against Arrieta (2-0, 1.93) tomorrow (1:20pmCT).
Go, Cubs!
