The Chicago Cubs beat the San Diego Padres 3-1 on Tuesday, taking a 1-0 series lead in the National League Wild Card series. The Cubs are going back to that bullpen for Game 2, with Andrew Kittredge starting after his Game 1 dominance. A team that has won Game 1 has never won the Wild Card series since its formal introduction in 2022. They have ace Shota Imanaga on regular rest and on the postseason roster, but have opted for the bullpen game instead. Cubs vs Padres Game 2 begins at 2 p.m. Central time on Wednesday,
