The Los Angeles Dodgers will look to snap their 2-game skid tonight at Dodgers Stadium but it won’t be easy as they will be hosting the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs will have the lefty, Jon Lester, tapping the rubber. Lester has won his last two outings after a rough month in May and is 5-4, with a 3.56 ERA, and a 1.29 WHIP. The Dodgers will counter with southpaw Clayton Kershaw. Kershaw is back to his dominating form, possessing a record of 5 wins with just 1 loss, a 3.00 ERA, and a 1.05 WHIP. Chicago has not been good on the road. They are 14-18 and just 1-5 in their last 6 away from Wrigley. The Dodgers are 5-2 in Kershaw’s last 7 starts against the Cubs and 6-2 in his last 8 turns against them at Chavez Ravine. Both teams have bullpen issues. If Kershaw can eat up innings and go late in the game, the Dodgers should get this one.
TONIGHT’S PICK: LOS ANGELES DODGERS
