Cubs' Jason Heyward sitting out Tuesday's Game 4 matchup
Chicago Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward is not in the starting lineup for Game 4 of the NLDS.
What It Means:
As the Cubs host the Nationals and look to close them out in four, Heyward will be relegated to a bench role with Ben Zobrist starting in right and Javier Baez entering at second.
The move is an obvious one. Heyward is 0-for-18 in 21 career plate appearances against Tanner Roark, today's starter.
