Result: Win
On Friday, Chicago right-hander Kyle Hendricks (5-6, 3.83 ERA) is scheduled to start opposite Pittsburgh right-hander Mitch Keller (10-8, 4.22). Hendricks has gone 1-0 with a 3.12 ERA over his past three starts. On Sunday, he limited the Kansas City Royals to one run and five hits in 6 1/3 innings, with three strikeouts and one walk, in a 4-3 win for the Cubbies. Mitch Keller made the All-Star team this year, and has quality stuff. We like him to show up tonight and we think the Bucs get to Hendricks. Let's roll with the Pirates.
