Chicago Cubs ML
Tonight will be game one of a Sunday Night Baseball doubleheader special. We will ride with the home team in the rubber game of this three-game series.

Boyd has been outstanding at Wrigley Field this year with a perfect 7-0 record and an ERA of 2.44.
Erick Fedde will toe the rubber for the Cardinals. He has struggled lately, allowing 14 runs in his last two starts, and now faces one of the best offensive teams in baseball.
