Pre-Gamin’: Cubs at Giants (8:45 CT) – Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

The Giants took game one against the Cubs last night, but there are three more to go.

Jake Arrieta is pitching for the Cubs, coming off his second worst start of the year, a 3.2 IP effort against the Reds (6H, 5R, 2ER, 4BB, 3Ks). The Cubs need him to sharpen up quickly, not only because their performance this month will likely define the entire season (and Arrieta will play a big role in that), but also because he’ll likely be a big part of the rotation even if they continue winning and add someone at the deadline.

Come on, Jake. Be a friend. Pitch well. Go Cubs.
