The Cubs are one win away from their first World Series appearance since 1945, and they'll play the Dodgers for the title of National League champions on Saturday night.
Down 2–1 to start the series, the Cubs bounced back in Game 4 with a 10–2 victory and kept the winning streak going with an 8–4 win in Game 5 on Thursday. They will return home on Saturday to host the Dodgers in what could be the final game of the NLCS.
The Cubs are seeking to win their first World Series since 1908, while Los Angeles is trying to end a shorter drought.
