The Cubs will face off against the Giants in game three of the National League Divisional League on Monday night at 8:38 CT on Fox Sports One.

The big news is that Jason Heyward will not start with Ben Zobrist taking his spot in right field. Maddon decided to get another big bat in the lineup with Jorge Soler who will bat cleanup and play left field. The Cubs will be the fourth team in MLB history to start three catchers in one postseason series.

The pitching will be two of the best in baseball with Jake Arrieta vs. Madison Bumgarner.
