Joc Pederson leads off the series finale in left, Anthony Rizzo is back in the lineup at first base, Javy Báez is at short, and Ian Happ cleans up in center. David Bote is at third, Nico Hoerner is at second, Nick Martini is in right, and PJ Huggins is the catcher.
Trevor Williams really needs to be better in this game, simple as that. He hasn’t recorded an out in the 6th inning since his Cubs debut in early April and he hasn’t even made it to the 5th in any of his last three. His ERA has risen to 6.
