Cubs @ Dodgers: Lester vs Kershaw (Game 49)
CHC (25-23): LHP Jon Lester (3-2, 3.19)
LAD (30-20): LHP Clayton Kershaw (7-2, 2.01)
First pitch: 3:10pmCST
Lester Madduxed on Tuesday to beat the Giants at Wrigley (9 IP, 1 ER, 10 K, 0 BB, 99 pitches). He's dominated these Dodgers, who are 25-125 (.200) against him. Hernandez is 3-13 with a HR.
Kershaw, coincidentally, had the same line as Lester against the Cardinals his last time out, but it took him 5 more pitches to do it. Sad. The Cubs are 13-84 (.155) against him. Rizzo is 3-11 with a HR. Getting shut out for two games is one way of preparing to face Kershaw, but it's probably not the best way.
Hendricks (4-2) versus Cosart (0-1) tomorrow in San Diego at 3:40pmCST.
Go Cubs!
