Buoyed by a thrilling comeback win in Game 1, the Los Angeles Dodgers now look to sweep the Chicago Cubs in a doubleheader. Dating back to last year’s National League Championship Series, the Dodgers have won three of four games at Wrigley Field.
Rich Hill takes the mound in the nightcap for what’s his first start since May 19. In that outing Hill only threw two pitches to Washington Nationals leadoff man Trea Turner before being removed with an aggravated blister.
Hill makes his first career regular-season start against his former Cubs team. In one previous relief appearance against Chicago in 2011, the left-hander recorded two outs via strikeout.
