The Cubs have looked decent at different points of the season, but in other parts they have looked like they belonged in Triple A. However, the Cubs are taking to the road in this game to face a Mariners team that is more of a road worthy team than a home team, which is very odd. The problem is the Cubs are only sitting around the five hundred mark when it comes to playing on the road and that is definitely going to be a challenge for the Cubs in this game as both teams are fairly evenly matched when it comes to playing on the road or at home.

The Cubs are playing the Mariners on the day and the Mariners offense is quite a bit better than the Cubs. Even with Hamels pitching great on the season, he has not really been able to go deep in the game and that will prove to be problematic for the Cubs in this game as he is unable to go deep into the game and hands it over to the pen early on. Look for the Cubs to do great until that point, but the Mariners are able to bring home a home win here. Final Score, Seattle Mariners win 5-3.
