CHC (74-43): RHP Jason Hammel (12-5, 2.90)

Hammel is on a roll, winning his last five starts. He threw seven scoreless against the Angels on Wednesday. The chips are working! He’s 1-1 with a 4.91 in his two starts against Milwaukee this year. Overall, they are 25-98 (.255) against him. Braun is 9-25 with 3 “HRs.”
Anderson won against Atlanta his last time out (5.1 IP, 2 ER, 3 K, 1 BB). He’s 1-6 with a 5.96 ERA on the road this year. He beat the Cubs in Milwaukee in May, giving up 2 ER and falling one out short of a complete game. The Cubs are 4-38 (.105) against him—really? Zobrist is 1-3, and Heyward has a HR—really?
Nelson (6-12, 4.07) versus Lester (12-4, 2.93) tomorrow at 7:05pmCST.
Go Cubs!
