For the second time in a week, the Chicago Cubs play a win-or-go-home game, this time against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday in Game 3 in their best-of-five NL Division Series.
Once again, the Cubs will turn to Jameson Taillon.
Taillon tossed four scoreless, two-hit innings against the San Diego Padres last Thursday and Chicago went on to take the deciding Game 3 of their Wild Card Series 3-1. The right-hander was focused, striking out four and walking none before five relievers wrapped it up.
What we know:
This time, the Cubs need to prevail in three straight elimination contests to keep their season alive. The Brewers have a 2-0 lead in the series following 9-3 and 7-3 wins in Milwaukee when they ambushed Chicago's thinned pitching staff and limited the Cubs to 10 total hits.
