Reds @ Cubs: Iglesias vs. Hammel (Game 132)
Haren and the bullpen pitched well enough to keep the Cubs in the game till Schwarber deposited a change-up in straight-away center. It's nice to have a non-Arrieta win.
For the rubber match, we have...
CIN (54-77): RHP Raisel Iglesias (3-6, 3.92)
CHC (75-56): RHP Jason Hammel (7-6, 3.42)
First pitch: 1:20pm
Hammel lost in LA (5 IP, 3 ER) on Friday. He is 0-0 with a 2.80 in his two starts against the Reds this season. They are 20-76 (.263) against him. Frazier is 2-7 with a HR. Votto is 3-17 with a HR.
Iglesias lost in Milwaukee (7 IP, 3 ER) his last time out. He missed more than a month in the middle of the season because of an oblique strain. He had a no-decision (5.2 IP, 2 ER) against the Cubs in July. He’s 1-5 with a 5.40 in 7 games on the road this year but was 2-3 with a 2.27 in August. The Cubs are 6-21 against him. Coghlan is 2-3 with a HR.
Go Cubs!
