Respect me!” A year after their historic championship, Rizzo and the Chicago Cubs are fighting for another memorable October. Jake Arrieta returns from his own hamstring injury for the Cubs, while Tanner Roark gets the ball for the Nationals. “When I got my chance, I did it for the whole team, but mostly for Quintana and Schwarber,” Almora said. While Scherzer mowed down the Cubs, Quintana worked on his own gem in his first career playoff appearance.
