Nationals @ Cubs: Fedde vs Lester (Game 110)
WAS (64-44): RHP Erick Fedde (0-1, 15.75)
CHC (58-51): LHP Jon Lester (8-6, 3.96)
First pitch: 1:20pmCST
Lester gave up 3 ER in 4 innings (and hit a HR-wtf?!) for a no-decision in the 16-4 blowout of the D’backs on Tuesday. The Nats are 41-184 (.223) against him. Wieters is 16-49.
Fedde got knocked around by the Rockies in Washington for his MLB-debut last week (4 IP, 7 ER, 3 K, 2 BB). He was 4-4 with a 3.72 in the minors before his call up. No word on how Dusty plans to blow out his arm.
Arrieta (10-8) opens the series in San Francisco against Moore (3-11) and the Giants on the wrong coast tomorrow at 9:00pmCST.
Go Cubs!
AZ (60-46): RHP Zack Godley (4-4, 3.06)
