Marcus Stroman is on quite a run of success for the Chicago Cubs, who are also playing some of their best baseball.
Taking his act to England, Stroman tries for an eighth consecutive winning start as the Cubs eye a fifth straight victory and a two-game MLB London Series sweep of the rival St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday.
"My favorite thing about 'Stro' is the confidence he carries, the belief in himself and the mindset he has," Cubs manager David Ross said. Ex-Cub Willson Contreras went 2-for-4 with a double versus Stroman in that contest, while Paul Goldschmidt was 0-for-4, but is a lifetime .381 hitter against him.
