The Chicago Cubs will feel confident after what could be said to be a more than extraordinary performance in this series. In the opener, this team won by seven runs in a 2-9 encounter and then pulled off a 0-4 win in game 2. However, the Chicago Cubs have a 6-4 record in their last ten matches, losing to the Milwaukee Brewers and Philadelphia Phillies in those games. 

The starter slot for the Chicago Cubs on Thursd🐽ay will be Justin Steele. Steele is 1-3 this year with a 2.95 ERA in 13 starts. Steele is 25-19 in his career with a 3.23 ERA in 87 games (76 starts).

The Orioles have been below par in this series, and looking at this side, there is much to improve. The Chicago Cubs have been decent in their last💙 two series, but they come in again as underdogs. This coul🐎d be tough, but the Baltimore Orioles are ahead and should get things right this time.
