We won with the Chicago Cubs as a massive underdog in Game 1 of this NLDS. The Washington Nationals mustered only two hits in the 3-0 defeat, but I think they'll do much better here in Game 2.

Jon Lester (13-8, 4.33 ERA) will take the ball for the Cubs. He's had a pretty mediocre season and posted a 7.85 ERA in four starts in August followed by a 4.18 ERA in September. He'll face a Nats team might angry for being shut out last night. Gio Gonzalez (15-9, 2.96 ERA) will take the ball for Washington. Gonzalez is 0-1 against the Cubs this year, although he gave up just one run and two hits over six innings in that one start. He has the current Cubs limited to a .191 batting average through 110 at bats.

The Cubs are 3-7 in Lester's last 10 starts vs. a team with a winning record and 0-6 in their last six road games vs. a left-handed starter. The Nationals are 16-5 in Gonzalez's last 21 home starts vs. a team with a winning record.

My selection is a 10* play on Washington Nationals.
