The Struggling Chicago Cubs Prepare to Face Rival St. Louis Cardinals in Weekend Series
The Chicago Cubs have hit a rough patch in their season, trying to keep up with the surging Milwaukee Brewers in their division. The Brewers have been on a winning streak, becoming the first team to reach 70 wins. Meanwhile, the Cubs narrowly avoided a sweep by the Cincinnati Reds and now find themselves trailing the division by four games.
But the Cubs have a chance to make up some ground this weekend as they hit the road to face their biggest rival, the St. Louis Cardinals. The three-game series kicks off on Friday night at 7:15 p.m. CST.
In the first game of the series, Cubs All-Star left-hander Matthew Boyd will take the mound against Cardinals rookie right-hander Michael McGreevy. Both teams will be looking for a strong start to the series and a chance to gain some momentum in the division race.
