Chicago Cubs betting odds of second game versus the White Sox

The Crosstown Classic kicked off in disappointing fashion for the Chicago Cubs. Cole Hamels looked great, AGAIN and the bullpen gave away another close game. Eloy Jimenez took Pedro Strop deep to give the White Sox a 3-1 lead late Tuesday night.

Looking on to game two, this is a pitchers dream matchup. Two pitchers, Jon Lester and Lucas Giolito who are on top of their game. Lester has thrown the ball very well this year with two rough games against the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Houston Astros (quite good offenses).
