LOS ANGELES – Cubs lefty Jordan Wicks made his 10th appearance of the season Wednesday and his third start back from the 60-day injured list.
Two separate injuries, first a left forearm strain and then a strained right oblique, wiped out much of the rookie’s season. But he returned just in time to help the Cubs weather lefty starter Justin Steele landing on the IL.
“Got a tough task against a good lineup tonight,” manager Craig Counsell said Wednesday before the series finale against the Dodgers.
