He is 8-9 this season with a 3.49 ERA. In August, Webb had an ERA of 3.49 in six starts. The Giants have lost three straight games that Webb has started.

The Cubs have won six of their last nine games entering Monday. Justin Steele gets the start for the Cubs. He is 15-3 this season with a 2.69 ERA. Steele has an ERA of 2.91 since the break.
