Dodgers second.  A.González homered to center on a 1-0 count.  Reddick grounded out, pitcher Hendricks to first baseman Rizzo.  Pederson flied out to left fielder Zobrist.  Grandal walked on a full count.  Toles fouled out to third baseman Bryant.

The Dodgers have a 12-10 record all-time in Game 2 of best-of-7 series. That includes a 5-1 record after winning Game 1, and a 7-9 record when losing the first game of the series.

Since winning its last World Series title in 1908, the Cubs have never won a best-of-7 series (0-10, including 0-3 in NLCS). In those 10 series, Chicago has fallen into an 0-2 hole seven times while splitting the first two games three times (did not lead any 2-0).

Kyle Hendricks led the majors with a 2.13 ERA in the regular season, the first Cubs pitcher to do so since Bill Lee in 1938 (2.66). Hendricks gave up two runs and four hits in 3.2 innings against the Giants in Game 2 of the NLDS, which the Cubs held on to win, 5-2.

Either Julio Urias or Clayton Kershaw are likely to get the start for Los Angeles in Game 2. Urias (age 20 years and 65 days on Sunday) would be the youngest pitcher ever to start a postseason game. Kershaw is 3-6 with a 4.79 career ERA in the playoffs, and picked up his first career save in Game 5 of the NLDS Thursday (0.2 IP).

CHICAGO -- For the fourth time in their seven games this postseason, Clayton Kershaw takes the ball for the Dodgers, while Chicago Cubs' right-hander Kyle Hendricks is merely glad to be back on the mound.
Kershaw won Game 1 of the National League Division Series, then started Game 4 on short rest and came in to close Game 5, earning one win and a save against the Washington Nationals.

The ace left-hander pitched seven sparkling innings, Adrian Gonzalez homered and Los Angeles beat the Chicago Cubs 1-0 Sunday night to tie the NL Championship Series at a game apiece.
