The Indians have won four different players who have driven in 23 RBI’s and the leader of the squad has been Jose Ramirez who has hit eight home runs and driven in 28 RBI’s. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Cubs who have found a lot of success this season and coming into this game they have won three games in a row. Against the Indians on Tuesday, the Cubs fell behind early, but they chipped away with a couple of home runs and that was enough to come away with the victory.
