Cubs-Dodgers preview

After nearly getting no-hit and watching one of their most popular players traded Thursday, the Los Angeles Dodgers now get the privilege of facing the Chicago Cubs, owners of the best record in baseball. The Dodgers took two of three from the rival San Francisco Giants the past three days, but Matt Moore's gem in the series finale stood out more than the wins. The trade of well-liked catcher A.J. Ellis to the Philadelphia Phillies for catcher Carlos Ruiz hours stunned many in the Dodgers' clubhouse before the game, but first baseman Adrian Gonzalez said the distraction didn't affect the performance on the field.
