Game 5 with everything on the line, so both managers will have all their best arms available. Chicago has come back from a 0-2 deficit with wins in the last two, 4-3 and 6-0. The Cubs are on an 8-4 run. They have great balance, ranking fifth during the regular season in runs scored, 10th in on-base percentage, sixth in slugging, and third in steals. The relief staff has been fourth in the postseason with a 2.27 ERA. Milwaukee has lost five of its last eight meetings with Chicago, including three losses as a slight favorite. Play Chicago.
