The Chicago Cubs will look to keep their postseason hopes alive Wednesday afternoon when they host the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 3 of the National League Division Series.
Right-hander Jameson Taillon (11-7, 3.68 ERA in the regular season) will attempt to repeat his performance in the wild-card round, when he helped pitch the Cubs to a Game 3 win over the San Diego Padres.
Meanwhile, the Brew Crew could end the season for former manager Craig Counsell and the Cubs by completing the series sweep at Wrigley Field. The Brewers will have Chicagoland native Quinn Priester (13-3, 3.32) on the mound in a bid to close out the series.
“Growing up, coming to Wrigley Field all the time, let alone starting a playoff game here is definitely something that’s really cool,” says Priester. “If I would have told my 10-year-old self this, it would be pretty darned cool.”
