Both the sides are looking to clinch the series and it promises to be an epic clash. Fans are rushing for their Chicago Cubs vs. Philadelphia Phillies tickets as they don’t want to miss the live action.

Chicago Cubs have entered the season with a young side and have behind them a successful year as they made it to the 2015 National League Championship Series. And that was before they added to their roster high-end talent like Jason Heyward, John Lackey and Ben Zobrist. The team is solid all around the diamond and is now deeper in almost all the areas. Boasting of the 4^th best farm system in the league, the Cubs are poised for some stellar wins this year.

For the Philadelphia Phillies it’s an all new ball game. Their last big win came in 2011 and since then they have been on the losing side. Starting from the top of the hierarchy, a complete rebuild has taken place and a new club president and general manager have been appointed. Veterans Jonathan Papelbon and Cole Hamels have been traded for younger prospects and the team is still active in revamping the roster. While it may take some time for the changes to show their effects, the Phillies are headed in the right direction. It will be interesting to see how these two young sides battle in out on the field.
