After several months of regular season baseball, postseason baseball is upon us, continuing today with game 5 of the NLDS between the Chicago Cubs and Washington Nationals. Both teams won their respective divisions and have the talent to make a deep postseason run in 2017.
The series is tied after Nationals won game 4 behind a dominant effort from Stephen Strasburg, who earned his first career postseason win.
On the mound for the Chicago Cubs tonight in Chicago is Kyle Hendricks. Hendricks went toe-to-toe with Nationals ace Stephen Strasburg last Friday in Game 1, earning a win while allowing two hits and striking out six over seven scoreless innings.
As for the Nationals, their starting pitcher has yet to be announced.
