Los Angeles at Chicago

The Dodgers waited a couple weeks before experiencing their World Series hangover as they have lost 12 of their past 16 games and looking nothing like World Champions. Los Angeles lost a doubleheader yesterday and Clayton Kershaw lasted just one inning in the first game before David Bote hit a walk-off single in the nightcap. It was Chicago's fourth win in six games as it tries to climb back to .500, and the Cubs will face Walker Buehler, who gave up five runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings his last outing against Cincinnati. Chicago hitters are batting .308 in 51 at-bats vs. Buehler. Adbert Alzolay made it through six innings while giving up just two runs on four hits against Atlanta on Thursday. The Dodgers have lost six of the past seven meetings at Wrigley Field. Take the Cubs.
