Tommy Edman, the Los Angeles Dodgers utility player who has been a consistent thorn in the Chicago Cubs' side throughout his career, appears ready to continue his hot streak against the Chicago Cubs in tonight's series finale at Dodger Stadium. Tommy Edman's powerful performance yesterday included a game-winning three-run homer that lifted the Chicago Dodgers to a 3-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs. It extended their home winning streak to 10 games dating back to last year's National League Championship Series.

Tommy Edman's recent performance signals strength against the Chicago Cubs

Tommy Edman has had a particularly good history against the Chicago Cubs, and yesterday's home run was the 14th he has hit against the Chicago Cubs, more than any other team. Edman's decisive three-run blast in the sixth inning came after Teoscar Hernández singled and Freddie Freeman was hit by a pitch off of Chicago Cubs starter Matthew Boyd in yesterday's game. Tommy Edman has been extremely productive at the plate this season, leading the Los Angeles Dodgers with six home runs and 14 RBI while claiming he's 'not trying to hit homers.'

Tommy Edman's numbers against the Chicago Cubs are impressive, as he came into Friday's game batting .280/.320/.500 with 13 home runs in 68 career games against them. His production against other teams is far less than his power against Chicago, as he hits only seven home runs against the Pittsburgh Pirates and Milwaukee Brewers in his career.

The Los Angeles Dodgers look to continue home dominance tonight at Dodger Stadium

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been almost untouchable at Chavez Ravine. When they beat the Pirates yesterday, it was their 10th straight home win. The team's performance has been helped by the fact that they have returned home and have not lost four of the last six games on their road trip. Tonight's Los Angeles Dodgers vs Chicago Cubs game can be viewed on SportsNet LA and MARQ and streamed on Fubo (regional restrictions may apply) at 9:10 PM ET on 13th April.
The Chicago Cubs will be sending Ben Brown against Roki Sasaki of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Brown's third start of the season has him with a 1-1 record, and he was not good in his last start against the San Diego Padres, allowing five earned runs on seven hits in four innings.
With Tommy Edman showing no signs of injury and producing at a high level, the Los Angeles Dodgers have positioned themselves well to complete the weekend sweep of the Chicago Cubs tonight at Dodger Stadium.
