		<description><![CDATA[The ultimate match-up in baseball is the confrontation between the pitcher and the batter. And more than anywhere else, that battle is waged in and around the corners of the strike zone.

		<description><![CDATA[The Cubs have been one of the best teams in Major League Baseball to start 2016.
