The Dodgers will play 2 today in the confines of Wrigley Field. One day after rain knocked out their hopes of playing, the NL West teams will go head-to-head for 14 innings starting this afternoon.
As part of MLB’s rules for doubleheaders, teams are allowed to carry one extra player on the roster for the day. The Dodgers have decided to call up catcher Keibert Ruiz for the day and he takes the spot of Mike Kickham. James Pazos had previously been called up, but that was for a potential Monday game.
That leaves one more open roster spot for the day for the Dodgers.
