by - Senior Editor -

Sunday afternoon's batting lineup for the rubber match of a three-game series between the Chicago Cubs (9-9) and the Colorado Rockies (12-10) at 2:10 p.m. CDT at Coors Field will be the following:

Albert Almora Jr. CF

Javy Baez SS

Kris Bryant 3B

Anthony Rizzo 1B

Tommy La Stella 2B

Kyle Schwarber LF

Victor Caratini C

Jason Heyward RF

Jose Quintana P

Quintana (1-1, 8.16 ERA) will be on the mound today opposed by righty German Marquez (1-1, 4.44 ERA). The Cubs starter only needs three strikeouts for 1,000 for his career and become the 139th lefty to reach that prestigious mark. He is 1-0 with a 3.65 ERA lifetime at Coors Field.

Addy Russell and Willson Contreras get the day off against the righty starter.

Today's game will be televised on NBC Sports Chicago and MLB.TV.
