The Chicago Cubs and the Los Angeles Dodgers are tied 1-1 in the National League Championship Series after their first two games at Wrigley Field. On the mound Tuesday at Dodger Stadium for the Cubs is Jake Arrieta, who aims to outmaneuver Los Angeles' lefthand-heavy lineup with his late-sinking fastball. For the Dodgers, lefty Rich Hill will keep the Cubs on their toes with his deceptive fastballs and breaking curveballs.
