Dodgers-Cubs NLCS Game 3: In Real Life

3:48 p.m. ET: The Windy City
It's unseasonably warm for October. Pitchers may not want to look at the flags because the wind is blowing out of the southwest, which usually favors hitters. The wind blew out for 16 Cubs home games this season, resulting in an average of 13.4 runs per game. When the wind blows in, teams have averaged 8.4 runs per game.
