The Chicago Cubs raised four banners on a rainy Monday night at Wrigley Field prior to facing the Los Angeles Dodgers in their home opener. The Cubs recognized their 1907 and 1908 World Series titles and 2016 National League pennant before reaching the main attraction — their 2016 World Series banner.
After a rain delay and pregame ceremony, the 2016 NLCS opponents met for the first time since the Cubs ended the Dodgers’ playoff run. Runs were at a premium, with Jon Lester giving the Dodgers fits and Alex Wood doing his best to contain a vaunted Cubs lineup.
