Dodgers @ Cubs: Darvish vs Hendricks (NLCS Game 3)
LAD (2-0): RHP Yu Darvish
CHC (0-2): RHP Kyle Hendricks
First pitch: 8:00pmCST (TBS)
Thankfully, we’re back at Wrigley. Hendricks went 3-2 with a 2.83 at home this year. He missed the Dodgers, but he went 1-1 with a 0.71 ERA against them in the NLCS last year. Overall they are 7-37 (.189) against him. Turner is 2-7 with a HR.
Hendricks gave up 4 ER in 4 innings in the craziness that was Game Five of the NLDS. So far this post-season, he’s 1-0 with a 3.27.
Darvish (10-12, 3.86 for the season) was acquired by LA at the trade deadline to pitch in a game like this one. He picked up the win in Game Three of the sweep of the Diamondbacks in the NLDS, giving up 1 ER in 5 innings. After the All-star break, he went very mediocre 4-4 with a 4.50, so there’s that.
For their careers, the Cubs are 8-41 (.195) against him. Rizzo is 1-2 with a couple RBI.
Go Cubs!
