• Wainwright pitched a complete game on his 39th birthday last time out, striking out nine and allowing two runs against the Indians in his third win of the year. He will look to continue his solid campaign, facing the Cubs for the first time this season.

• The Cubs will promote Alzolay from South Bend for Game 1. He faced St. Louis on Aug. 19 and took a no-decision after giving up one unearned run over five innings. He struck out six and walked one.
