The Dodgers guaranteed at least a series split against the Cubs thank to a 7-5 win that was entirely too dramatic towards the end thanks to the bridge to Kenley Jansen being a rickety piece of shit.

Alex Wood got off to a rough start in the 1st, as despite getting two outs to start, he then surrendered a double and a two-run dong to Willson Contreras to put the Cubs up 2-0.
The offense fought back in their half of the 1st, as Max Muncy bombed his 16th homer of the season to cut the deficit in half.
