10/17 7:00 PM CDT
Kershaw (18-4, 2.31 ERA) vs Quintana (11-11, 4.15 ERA)
Maddon's already confirmed Wade Davis is not pitching today so it's up to the offense and Carl Edwards Jr. to make it happen
The bats have woken just enough, and hopefully more so tonight, to do some serious damage IF men are on base.
Almora leads off again
Teacher pet Zobrist in RF
Schwarber in LF
IF and Contreras all same
Need to scratch out 5 runs and Q needs to be lights out and go 7

That's a pretty optimistic view of what happened IMO. They had 5 hits. Wood had 7 k's in 4.2 and none of the dodgers walked anyone. Think the only difference between last night and the rest of the series was the fact Arrieta went 6.2 and they only needed 1 out from anyone besides Davis. Baez has to show up again tonight. Game 1 he was 0-3 with 2 k's. He's a guy who hits LHP. And the cubs are going to have to find a way to get to the dodgers bullpen. Kershaw is unlikely to go out there and blow the game.
Dodgers could go
Kershaw for six
Cengrani for the seventh (1.86 FIP)
Morrow for the eighth (1.55 FIP)
Jansen for the ninth (1.31)
there is no "get to the bullpen" on this team
over under on our inning....9 pitches?
