For the fourth-straight game, the Chicago Cubs have jumped out to an early lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers.
With the team facing a do-or-die situation in Game 4 of the NLCS, they sent Jake Arrieta to the mound. Arrieta has thrown two scoreless innings thus far and he already has a lead.
Catcher Willson Contreras hit a monster home run in the second inning which hit off the scoreboard to give the Cubs a 1-0 lead. Check it out:
