Tonight's Trevor Bauer-Gerrit Cole showdown is more than just a marquee pitching matchup. The pitchers were teammates at UCLA and two of the first three picks in the 2011 MLB draft. Bauer also has had an ongoing battle of words with Astros star Alex Bregman on social media. Buckle up, it could be a wild night in Houston.

Jon Lester is done after a fine return to the Cubs' rotation. Lester tossed five innings against the Dodgers, allowing one run and four hits while striking out five and walking none. He threw 79 pitches to 19 batters faced. It was Lester's first start since April 8, when he tweaked a hamstring while running the bases.

Cody Bellinger just doubled to right field for the Dodgers off Cubs starter Jon Lester. That gives Bellinger 84 total bases on the season. According to Elias, that's just one short of the big-league record for total bases by the end of April. Bellinger's former teammate, Chase Utley, set the mark in 2008.

The Cubs needed to open up a roster spot to make room for Jon Lester's return from the IL for today's game against the Dodgers. The odd man out is reliever Tim Collins, who was optioned to Iowa. Chicago still has two bullpen lefties in Kyle Ryan and Randy Rosario in the active roster.
