Chicago finally came through with three runs on Sunday, which was barely enough to win Game 6. The win may have given the Cubs some momentum and confidence to break through with better hitting after being mostly shut down the previous two games. Josh Tomlin is good for only about four or five innings and his season ERA was 4.40. The Cubs lost Jake Arrieta's first two postseason games before winning Game 2 of this series. Arrieta gave up a run in 5 2/3 innings with three walks. The right-hander had a strong first half of the season but slipped a bit after the All-Star break with a 3.69 ERA compared to 2.68 before. The OVER is 12-3-3 in Arrieta's last 18 road starts and 51-22-3 OVER in Cleveland's last 76 home games against right-handed starters. The Indians have gone OVER in four of Tomlin's last five starts against NL teams. Play Game 6 to soar OVER the total.
