Hendricks Done

With one out in the top of the eighth inning, Kyle Hendricks gives up just the second Dodgers hit of the night, and Joe Maddon comes out and removes the starter. He walked none and struck out six, removing the two base runners who previously reached against him. Unlike Mark Prior in 2003, Joe Maddon is not letting his star stay in too long.

Aroldis Chapman is in for the long save. He gets a double play, and the Cubs pitchers have still faced the minimum.
