The New York Yankees head to Wrigley Field on Friday to open a three-game weekend series with the Chicago Cubs, marking the final stop on their 10-game road trip.
The Yankees come into the series with a 61-48 record, looking to bounce back from a tough loss to the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. The White Sox took the game 2-1 in 11 innings, with the Yankees settling for a split after losing their second straight walk-off loss.
The Cubs, meanwhile, return home after taking three of four from the St. Louis Cardinals, clinching the series on Thursday with a 4-2 win in 10 innings. Alex Bregman's heads-up baserunning led to the Cubs' first run in the fourth inning, and he drove in the go-ahead run with a double in the 10th.
The Cubs will send left-hander Shota Imanaga to the mound, who enters with a 3.72 ERA and 1.099 WHIP in 21 starts and 121 innings. New York gives the ball to right-hander Will Warren, who comes in with a 4.41 ERA and 1.412 WHIP in 102 innings over 21 appearances and 20 starts.
