Drew Smyly (1-1) allowed one run on four hits
with two walks and three strikeouts over 5 2/3 innings. Adbert
Alzolay, Mark Leiter Jr. and Michael Fulmer followed before Brad
Boxberger worked around a two-out single in the ninth for his
first save.
Dansby Swanson had three hits for Chicago, which has won seven
of its last 10. Nico Hoerner and Wisdom added two hits apiece.
Dodgers starter Julio Urias (3-1) allowed three runs (two
earned) on eight hits over 5 2/3 innings. He walked one and
struck out six. Chris Taylor homered and Mookie Betts had three
hits and an RBI for Los Angeles, which has lost six of its last
nine.
Taylor gave Los Angeles an early lead with a leadoff homer in
the third inning. His homer off the left-field foul pole was
Taylor's fourth of the season and second of the series.
Urias threw just 54 pitches in the first four innings before
tossing 31 in the fifth, when the Cubs pulled even on Luis
Torrens' run-scoring single with two outs. After Hoerner and
Swanson each singled to load the bases, Ian Happ grounded out to
end the inning.
Chicago moved ahead against Urias with two outs in the sixth
when Wisdom homered for the third straight game and Bellinger
followed with a 422-foot homer into the right-field seats.
Los Angeles cut the deficit to 3-2 in the bottom of the seventh
against Alzolay when Taylor scored from third after Cubs right
fielder Seiya Suzuki lost Betts' fly ball in the sun.
Alzolay was then replaced by Leiter, who struck out Freddie
Freeman for the second out. J.D. Martinez singled to load the
bases before Leiter escaped the jam by striking out Max Muncy.
The Dodgers placed catcher Will Smith on the seven-day injured
list (concussion-like symptoms) before the game. Veteran catcher
Austin Wynns was signed to replace Smith on the roster.
