OSS: Cubs defense shuts out the Dodgers in what felt like a playoff atmosphere.
Three+ up:
- Pat suggested that this was the Cubs best defensive game of the year, and he’s probably right. Heyward, Almora, and Bryant all made highlight reel plays, capped off by an unassisted double play turned by Javy snagging a liner and diving at the second base bag to double off the runner.
- Javy also had a great day at the plate, hitting two doubles and a triple, scoring two runs, and stealing a base that should have led to another.
