Gomes is starting at designated hitter and batting third in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Dodgers.
The Cubs are loading up on right-handed bats against southpaw Clayton Kershaw, and it helps that Gomes has one career home run against Kershaw in four at-bats. The veteran catcher is slashing .206/.250/.353 with one home run and two RBI across 12 games so far this season.
