Chicago Cubs (30-22) vs. Houston Astros (36-19)

Jon Lester (3-3, 2.68) vs. Corbin Martin (1-1, 4.97)

Cubs looking to avoid dropping three straight. Baez still the DH after striking out five times yesterday. Bryant out again.

M4 — Pitching change pays off for Astros. Reliever James gets Javy to whiff badly at strike 3.

F — Strange loss, in which the Cubs homered 5 times but never really seemed to be in control. Shaky start by Lester leads to 3rd straight defeat for Cubs.
