CHICAGO — The Chicago Cubs’ season could end Thursday night, right here at Wrigley Field, or over the weekend in Los Angeles. Baez crushed a 0-1 change-up from Wood out in the fifth, and the Cubs had all the runs they would need. Through six innings, Arrieta had reduced the Dodgers to … well, to what the Cubs had been over most of this month. In the seventh, though, he couldn’t quite wiggle free, and that brought on the most dreadful words in Chicago this postseason: the Cubs’ bullpen. That night, Maddon went down with John Lackey.
