For the Chicago Cubs, it’s the lineup that has gotten them this far. With Jon Lester on the mound, the Cubs won 19 games for the lefty. David Ross will be behind the plate, looking to slow the Cleveland Indians running game. I said this when the Cubs struggled in the Los Angeles Dodgers series. These are the guys that got you here, and now is the time to trust in them.
Jason Heyward returns to the lineup and looks to have gained some confidence in his swing. The Cubs will need all they can get as they look to survive to make the trip back to Cleveland.
