The Chicago Cubs head to New York to play the first game of the National League Championship Series against the New York Mets. Starting pitcher for the Cubs is Jon Lester, with an ERA of 3.68 for the post season so far, just slightly worse than his regular season one of 3.34. One thing to keep an eye on is whether the Cubs hitters will be able to keep up with the speed of the Mets' pitching. "It's worth noting just how much of a problem the Mets' velocity could be for those Cubs hitters. Looking at all pitches thrown 94 miles per hour or greater this season, the Cubs ranked near the bottom of the NL against those pitches."
The New York Mets get to start the seven game series at home, and will definitely be trying to get momentum going with a win. It can be quite disheartening to lose at home before going on the road soon after. Matt Harvey will start on the mound for the Mets tonight. With a regular season ERA of 2.71 and a post-season of 3.60, it will be interesting to see if he can match some of his previous performance in the playoffs. "The 26-year-old was phenomenal in his first start of the postseason, striking out 11 and allowing just one unearned run over six innings."
While the line favors the Mets in the opening game, this start to the National League Championship Series could very easily go either way with great teams and good pitchers on both sides.
