Cubs to rely on Arrieta to knot WS in Game 2
- Updated: October 26, 2016
CLEVELAND — After an historic run in the second half of 2015 that propelled him to the National League Cy Young Award and a dominant first half this season, Jake Arrieta spent much of the second half looking, well, above average.

• Game 2: Wednesday, 7 p.m. ET game time on FOX (6 p.m. ET pregame show on FS1)
“That’s baseball, man, I don’t put a lot of time and effort into that, really,” Arrieta said.
