Cubs vs. Dodgers Game Highlights (6/26/21) | MLB Highlights

And that group taken on the left he saw the splits if you want to call him that with the first 10 starts compared to the last five for Julio Urias but Dave Roberts his manager is excited to see how aggressive he is in tonight's game to try to get back to how he started this season. Yeah breaking ball and he struck him out as Bryant goes down swinging to away strikeout for Urias in a good start for the Dodger lefty bottom of the first rolls in in L.A. on a Saturday no score. Here's Alec Mills who has been better as a starter than he was kind of trying to find his role in his spot out of the bullpen this season for the Cubs that is in the left field down the line and past Bryant to the wall. Betts digging for second he will get a hold with a lead off double to start the night for the Dodgers one two to Muncie is Skynes in the air to center Merisnick back at the wall. It's off the wall. Betts will come around to score back to back doubles to start the night and the Dodgers on top here in the first runner at third nobody out to to pitch is grounded right side a thing of beauty base hit in the score is Muncie and it's to nothing Dodgers here in the first RBI number 40 for Turner to the lefty Arias to Hayward her ball hit sharply on the ground diving stop in shallow right. It's going to be a base hit McKinstry able to knock the ball down the second baseman. They were pulling that sharp ground ball off a hanging curve ball and he gets another base hit that is in for a strike. Down is Mills. For the fifth strikeout for Arias Contreras is driven in 30 hitting two thirty five and he strikes out on a pitch up around his neck left side base hit Turner two for two two on two out. There they go and ball for this is a very patient Dodger lineup will take their walks to in the inning. Bases are loaded for Gavin Lux big chance here bases loaded to one pitch is hit in the air to the center. Riznik is right there. Alec Mills walks to allows a hit but strands three Anthony Rizzo drives one in the deep right field it's got a chance gone a screaming line drive home run to the seats in right for Anthony Rizzo and the Cubs get on the board. It is now a two to one ball game that ball left the park in a hurry. That's in the left and down for base hit Taylor doubled his first time and now hops on the first pitch here and singles to start the fourth. This is through that swung around defense and into right McKinstry is on head to the third is Taylor first and third one out showing Bunn early again up and away throw down. They got Taylor picked off and Contreras celebrates after throwing a rocket down to third and third two out. That's the that's what's going to drive managers crazy when you have to you know people on the ropes and you just kind of lean out too far. And what a great throw by Contreras. My my my the Cubs making the play so far one to pitch is grounded to first off the glove of Rizzo base hit headed for the third is McKinstry hit number seven on the year for Rios who looks frustrated after being asked to punt and it's first and third again no damage done and two out to one here Betts grounds it right at Wisdom. He's got a good arm and fires a strike. Good job by Mills into and out of trouble yet again. Here comes the old to this is line to left it'll drop in for a base hit and roll all the way to the wall. Hey we're around first he's cruising to second a lead off double for Jason Heyward to begin the fifth inning for the Cubs. He's two for two swings and lands one fair ball down the right field line. It'll roll all the way to the corner around third and coming home is Heyward. He will score Ian Happ delivers a pinch hit double the other way that brings home Jason Heyward to two ball game Cubs and Dodgers here in the fifth. Tied him up one away strikeout number twelve the new career high for Urias here is a rocket through the left side Baez is on with one out here in the sixth now one for three one to pitch is slapped down the left field line. It is gone for a home run just inside the foul pole. I think the Dodgers are saying they want that check. Heyward was watching it all the way and Justin Turner's walking toward his dugout saying that needs to be reviewed. But right now it's three two Cubs on an opposite field home run by Jason Heyward who's three for three and has reached in each of his last seven plate appearances. Well either way it was a bad breaking ball and we're going to change the ball to a foul ball. It was a hanging breaking ball and he was able to stay on. They didn't even need to look at the replay. The third base umpire D.J. Rayburn was overruled and now David's going to ask him to look at it. I don't know how you overturn it and remember they've already overturned it. Yeah. So with regard to replay it would have to be overturned to be made a home run. You can't double stand a triple stamp either. However that goes this game very similar to last night's game score and they're going to call it a foul ball. Instead he just gets a base hit. Red hot is Jason Heyward and on base to start the seventh he's reached in seven straight plate appearances to one pitch headed in and a line drive base hit into right pitch was up Ortega clubbed it into right field and he's on with two down here in the seventh. So the easier RBI chance for Contreras is driven in 30 checks when he went. And that is he in it. Contreras doesn't agree. Bickford a nice job to come in get the strikeout after the stolen base. Here comes Bellinger back this week off the injured list. Hamstring is healthy fracture in his leg is healed and now trying to go to work. Fly ball in the center. Three to. Three to two.
