Arroyo looks to continue success against Cubs

Apr 4, 2007 - 3:20 PM Chicago Cubs (0-1) at Cincinnati (1-0) 7:10 pm EDT

CINCINNATI (Ticker) -- Bronson Arroyo tries to continue his success against the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday when he takes the mound for the Cincinnati Reds.

In his first season in the National Leaugue in 2006, Arroyo dominated the Cubs, going 4-0 with a 1.01 ERA in five starts. The righthander went 14-11 with a 3.29 ERA overall.

The Cubs counter with Ted Lilly, who a signed a four-year, $40 million deal as a free agent in December. Lilly, who has a 59-58 career record, pitched for Toronto in 2006 and posted a 15-13 record with a 4.31 ERA.

A lefthander, Lilly will be looking to contain Adam Dunn. The slugger homered in his first two at-bats to lead the Reds to a 5-1 victory over the Cubs in the opener of this three-game series on Monday.

Derrek Lee, who has nine career home runs at Great American Ball Park, had two of the Cubs' eight hits. Alfonso Soriano made his debut for the Cubs, going 1-for-4 from the leadoff spot.
