Ladies and gentleman we are in for a treat tonight as the
New York Yankees and the Chicago Cubs are back at it again inside Wrigley
Field. This time these two teams will be playing under the lights though as
Wrigley hosts these two historic MLB teams for a primetime matchup. With such a
great matchup comes great responsibility and the two pitchers shouldered with
such pressure are Jordan Montgomery for the Yankees, the rookie, and Brett Anderson
for the Cubs, the veteran. This should be another fun one in the Windy City.
Montgomery has been just what the Yankees needed out of him
since making his MLB debut with the team last month. Montgomery keeps the
Yankees in every game and gives his teammates a chance to win and that was on
display in his last start as well against the Baltimore Orioles. In the start
Montgomery allowed three runs in five innings of work keeping the Yankees
around long enough for Aaron Judge and company to bash the team to victory.
Anderson did not keep his team in the game and did not give
Chicago a chance to win the game last time out lasting just 1.1 innings while
giving up seven runs on seven hits. In Anderson’s defense he was dealing with
heavy winds and rain during his last start but either way I’ll take that kind
of production out of him once again tonight in Chicago.
The game will be played at 7:15 pm ET inside Wrigley Field
and can be seen on FOX. I’m not sure how this will affect MLB TV but I’d
venture to say the game will be blacked out everywhere but on FOX. You can also
follow along on the radio with John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman on WFAN.
Enjoy the game and as always Go Yankees!
