The Chicago Cubs (12-8) are gearing up for their Sunday afternoon matchup (1:20 pm CT) against the Los Angeles Dodgers (11-11), hoping to bounce back after a tough loss on Saturday.

The Cubs will be sending right-hander Marcus Stroman (2-1, 0.75 ERA) to the mound to face off against lefty veteran Clayton Kershaw (3-1, 2.52 ERA) of the Dodgers.

Stroman has a 0.87 ERA in his last 5 starts at Wrigley Field.

Overall, the Cubs' lineup looks solid on paper, with a good mix of power and speed.

If they can get some timely hitting and strong pitching from Stroman, they'll have a good chance to come away with a win against the Dodgers.
