The Cubs are going for the doubleheader sweep on this fine, cloudy evening in Wrigleyville.
Bryzzo leads off for the first-place Cubs, which appears to be a new thing that Joe Maddon enjoys doing. I can dig it. Rizzo, the unequivocal Greatest Leadoff Hitter of All Time, had a phenomenal first game with three walks and one triple in five plate appearances batting first. Bryant sat in the first contest, but he pinched hit later in the game and grounded out to third.
Heyward, batting third, hit in the same spot during the first game and went 1-4 with a walk and two runs scored.
