Cubs @ Marlins: Hammel vs Fernandez (Game 74)
Um, Cubs?CHC (48-25): RHP Jason Hammel (7-3, 2.55)
MIA (40-35): RHP Jose Fernandez (9-3, 2.36)
First pitch: 12:10pmCST
Hammel lost to the Cards on Tuesday (5.2 IP, 4 ER, 3 K, 1 BB). The Marlins are 35-123 (.285) against him. Prado is 7-19 with a HR.
Fernandez, who is still only 23, pitched well but had a no-decision against Atlanta (7 IP, 0 ER, 7 K, 2 BB) his last time out. He went 6-0 with a 1.38 in his 6 May starts, and is pitching almost as well so far in June. The Cubs are 3-18 (.167) against him. Heyward is 2-7.
If it weren't for the roof, I'd say we should pray for rain. Pray for something.
Arrieta (11-2, 1.74) versus Straily (4-4, 3.83) in Cinci tomorrow at 6:10pmCST.
Go Cubs!
