The Cubs’ bats must have missed their flight, because tonight’s effort at the plate was rather subpar. Rich Hill (yes, that Rich Hill) pitched decently for the Dodgers, but he was not the unhittable pitching machine the Cubs made him appear to be. Jake Arrieta pitched a good game today, with the Dodgers capitalizing on their few opportunities with runners in scoring position against him.
