Cubs look to Jon Lester in series finale v. Reds

After Saturday night’s exciting walk-off win, the Chicago Cubs will look to take the series finale against the Cincinnati Reds Sunday night at Wrigley Field.

A victory Sunday would allow the Cubs to take three-of-four from a reeling Reds team that enters play five games under .500 and 12 1/2 games behind the Cardinals in the National League Central.

Chicago (33-27) sits at a season-best six games over .500, and a win would help the club set a new high-point. With St. Louis being rained out, the finale gives Chicago a chance to keep pace with the Pittsburgh Pirates and gain ground in the division.
